Pros

It's Microsoft!!! There is nothing like working for such a HUGE company, there are so many more opportunities to find your dream job, there are so many more opportunities to learn new things, be a part of new technology development, travel and be successfull.

Cons

The biggest downfall, is the flip side to one of the positives. It's a HUGE company, and it's very easy to get lost in the masses. Other downsides are, that with a company this size, it's easy for bad employees to stay employed because it's easier for them to fly under the radar, people tend to be moved on, rather than gotten rid of.

Pros

Microsoft is a place where you are surrounded by smart people, and you get to be a part of developing products that will make the world a better place. I feel very proud to be part of a company the is striving to the best.

Cons

Hmmm. . . . it can be kind of hard to navigate in such a large company, so getting to know people outside of your group is key. This will also help you figure out how to get things done, so building relationships and networking within Microsoft is important.
