Business outlook
Pros
If you like technology and challenges, you will like the environment in Redmond. The offices were ok, a bit crowded at times and not enough conference rooms. The benefits were good, and when a relative of mine was very sick, my manager and director were very flexible and helpful.
Cons
Beauracratic, good old boy politics from the Atlanta office. The mandates they would send were so 1974 and were an insult. The truth is that the AT&T Wireless employees were smarter than 90% of the Cingular employees, that was clear from day one of the acquisition. They would have two or three people doing the same job that one AT&T Wireless person was doing - talk about bloated payrolls!
