Can anyone provide some insight to what it’s like working at Microsoft Federal as a consultant?? I recently got an offer for a technical consultant role in the federal space. Wondering about WLB, pipeline, projects, what happens if you’re on the bench too long, utilization requirements, any cool benefits you didn’t know about until later, etc. Any feedback is greatly appreciated! Feel free to DM me as well if you’d rather keep the conversation private.

Question out of curiosity. How did you find the role? Did you network or apply online? Also, you can find a ton of research on MS federal online if you don’t get a decent response here
