I visited the treehouses that Microsoft built for its employees to meet, work, and soak in the sun — take a look inside (MSFT)

Microsoft treehouses

While Amazon and Apple are making much noise about their new headquarters, Microsoft is quietly revamping its Redmond headquarters to support its growth. 

Speaking of growth, I got to tour the treehouses that Microsoft opened for its employees last year, where they can meet, chat, or just generally catch some rays. They're located right near the buildings where top Microsoft execs like CEO Satya Nadella have their offices, but any employee can use them. 

They're WiFi equipped, with power outlets everywhere. And they're a very neat little employee perk.

Take a look.

If you don't know the treehouses are there, you might never notice them. This is the view when you leave one of the nearby office buildings.



But climb the wooden ramps...



...and you'll find the first of Microsoft's three semi-hidden treehouses.
