It’s true what they say about our neck of the woods; we have an incredible appreciation for an active lifestyle. There are few places where you can participate in so many diverse pastimes from hiking to biking, kayaking to skiing, individual and organized sports – really we have it all.

 

In Redmond alone we have almost 20 sports fields including multipurpose areas for soccer, football, and cricket, volleyball and basketball courts, softball fields, and even a bocce ball court. All of these spaces are available just a few steps outside your office door. It’s not hard to take a minute to enjoy incredible weather, blow off some steam after a long meeting or coding session, or sign up to be part of one of the organized sports teams through a social sports group. You might call it an employee perk, but we also like to think of it as simply life at Microsoft.
