Folks currently working at MSFT, what's your experience with WFH policy? How much flexibility do managers have, and what seems to be the long-term outlook for WFH?

@tobinbaker I'm told the unofficial policy for the Redmond office expected more in-office time than officially required.

@pkhuong @tobinbaker IMO, this should always be your default assumption about any company that isn't primarily remote, whatever they might advertise publicly to attract candidates.

@tobinbaker seems to depend pretty heavily on group - the parts of MSR that I'm familiar with are really flexible; one of the product groups I work with is (AFAICT, I haven't asked specifically) remote/WFH friendly but one of the others seems to have mandatory in-office days

@tobinbaker (and I suppose one of the other product groups I work with is 100% in-office, but that's because they do classified stuff and have to be in a secure facility)

@dan yeah I might consider going back to an RSDE-type role, sure would be a lot less stressful than running services

@tobinbaker my team is fully remote and very spread out, overall, at least the Bay Area does not have enough seating for the number of people here, and people with 3 day RTO also mostly WFH. Could change.
