Yes and no but really they don't but some people think that they do just because of how the microwave cooks foods and other things but no it does not have magnets
Yes - a microwave oven has a magnet - that is why the generating tube is called a magnetron- it has a ceramic magnet that surrounds the anode block and forces the electrons emitted from the cathode to travel in a circle past the tuned cavities in the anode block, thereby creating the microwaves that are drawn off by an antenna and brought into the oven's cooking chamber - the cavity.

Inside a microwave oven,microwaves are made when electricity passes through a device called Magnetron.Magnetron uses a strong magnet. The electricity and the magnet make microwave electromagnetic.
Can a magnet damage an insulin pump?
yes. Microwaves, also, which have magnets are especially damaging. It also depends on the strength of the magnet and how close the object is to it and for how long.
