Normal Microsoft recruiting cycle: you raise a request for team. You wait 6 months. It gets approved with 50% of the headcount you asked for, with roles based in Canada and India for cost.
You spend months recruiting and getting people through after 5 interviews for each person where a board groupthink’s each candidate.
A year later, you have a team but can’t do what you wanted to do, then you get reorg’d elsewhere.
Microsoft’s recruitment cycle when business interests in peril: HIRE!!!!1!
