Microsoft Bellevue, Redmond, and Seattle Offices – Video Tour

Stephen Searer — Wed, 17 Feb 2010 14:00:00 +0000

This video isn’t a comprehensive tour showing closeups of workstations, but it does give us a good idea of some of the perks that come with being a Microsoft employee, or Microsoftee. The tour is led by a guy that seems like a part-time college resident assistant, in a video that seems like a college recruiting video, but whatever, it does a pretty good job of showing off their campus to potential Microsoft employees.

It shows some highlights of the Redmond, Bellevue, and Seattle office spaces. Enjoy!

Zune Headquarters

Jose Ramirez — Thu, 14 Aug 2008 16:00:52 +0000

Today we’re doing something no one has done in a long time: talking about Microsoft’s Zune. We tend to forget, but yes, iPod’s less popular little brother is still around. But he likes emo music and doesn’t talk to anyone, so he only has himself to blame.

The Zune offices are pretty nice. They have a bunch of music related things, such as speakers and things DJs use. The painting is pretty cool, too. I guess maybe I’m just jaded, but when Microsoft tries to be cool, it seems like they’re trying too hard.

Microsoft HQ

You might not like Microsoft, but admit it, we’re lucky they exist. Where would we be without Word, or Excel, or Halo? In a less productive, less fun place, my friends. And today we are taking a look at the place that makes it possible: Microsoft’s headquarters in Redmond, Washington, where over 30,000 of their employees work.

The psychedelic mural in the lunch area is pretty sweet, and the lake’s pretty nice. We’re spoiled by all the pictures of Google, etc., but there’s nothing to complain about. The kitchen looks great, there’s foosball and a pooltable, and comfy seats. If it is a “velvet sweatshop”, and least it’s plush velvet.

Bonus points: spot the Macs!
