Amazing things happen here!

From gamers to governments, moms to mega-corporations, Microsoft helps customers all over the globe to realize their potential.

Many people think Microsoft = software. Yes, we do software—but we also do hardware, services, research, and more. We work on PC operating systems and applications—like Windows and Windows Live. Products for IT professionals and developers—like Windows Server, Windows Azure and Visual Studio. Online services such as Bing and MSN. Business solutions like Office and Exchange. And devices like Xbox, Kinect, Windows Phone, and more.  

This means opportunity for Microsoft employees—to do things that impact the lives of millions, if not billions. So why not take a closer look at Microsoft? We think you’ll find that amazing things do happen here.
