- Vacation & Paid Time Off (608 comments)
“Can carry over 15 days to next year. And you get extra vacation after working at Microsoft for 5 years. Get more public holidays like Martin Luther...”
- Health Insurance (557 comments)
“HSA is great for saving tax. Downside no online chat helped. There is only email for microsoft.premera.”
- MicrosoftFeb 17, 2019StarStarStarStarStar
Robust and mature HR system with pretty seamless procedures in place for health insurance, legal coverage (I got a will and trust drawn up and it cost me nothing but the notary fees), fitness money to spend every year, and extremely generous charitable gift matching ($15,000/year)

the best benefits would be 401K plan and stock incentive plan
- MicrosoftFeb 13, 2019StarStarStarStarStar
Fantastic benefits package. Medical is almost no out of pocket. 401K match, good vacation, work life balance is much improved from 15 years ago.

Great 401k, Can invest in ESPP, best medical insurance with coordination of benefits for spouse. Paternity leave and other maternity benefits are great.

Microsoft Corp has an excellent benefits package that includes dental, medical, legal, 401K, ESPP, stocks. Also have great paid time off esp. if you are becoming a parent. Most other companies don't come close.

Good place to work here
- MicrosoftFeb 05, 2019StarStarStarStarStar
Great health, dental, vision; Good time off.
- MicrosoftFeb 16, 2019StarStarStarStarStar
Not very good. Low stock options and other benefits when you are just starting off your career out of college compared with other top IT firms.
- MicrosoftFeb 12, 2019StarStarStarStarStar
The employee insurance is great. Meals are good. Employee discount is great too. But the leadership is not that efficient.
