Advantages & Disadvantages
The main implication of Microsoft Corporation’s organizational structure is the ability to focus on product development. For example, the company uses its Intelligent Cloud division to offer cutting-edge cloud computing services. A corresponding advantage of this corporate structure is its contribution to the competitiveness of Microsoft’s products.
A disadvantage of the company’s organizational structure is its minimal consideration for regional market differences. Regions have varying preferences with regard to Microsoft’s computer hardware and software features, such as in the case of smartphones. Thus, a recommendation is for the company to integrate regional market differences in its organizational structural design.
