Microsoft - a place for amazing range of opportunities
Sakshi Education
Microsoft Corporation has built a great foundation in India. With 5000+ employees, it is one of the company's fastest growing businesses and now the second-largest employee base for Microsoft. It is also the only area outside of the US to have the complete presence of the Microsoft product lifecycle represented, spanning Research and Development through to support services.
In India, as a laboratory for Microsoft’s emerging markets strategy, it develops both innovative products and business solutions to help solve the complex challenges faced in these markets. And you can do this in an environment where Microsoft is respected. For the last two years, Business Today (India’s #1 business magazine) has recognized Microsoft as the Employer of Choice. It was ranked as the # 1 MNC in India in the 2008 Business World (India’s # 2 business magazine). A TNS survey revealed Microsoft to be the most reputable company in India in 2008 and it has won the silver “Readers Digest Pegasus award” for CSR.
Career Development
At Microsoft, you will have an amazing range of opportunities. You might become an expert in a particular field or build proficiencies across many areas. You might be an individual contributor or become a manager. Because they have so many kinds of jobs in so many different places, you can stay in one building, city, or country, or you can cross borders—in person, or virtually.
Your career and professional development is a partnership between you and your manager, reinforced by our numerous career resources. You drive your career development plan while your manager assists and coaches you, and they provide a framework with the tools and resources you need to succeed.
Defined Roles: Each of our jobs has clear requirements for success but lots of room to push boundaries and grow. Managers provide ongoing support, but ultimately you are empowered to shape your personal experience and chart your own career path. You can go deep in an area of expertise, or move across functions or businesses to experience a breadth of opportunity.
Career path options: You don’t have to be a manager to move up. Both individual contributor and management careers progress all the way through senior levels—they highly value both.
