      Pros

      Microsoft is the pioneer in computing. If you've got the skills then this is the place to shoe it off and get compensation. You will work with bunch of great minds on some of the newest technology advancements.

      Cons

      Well its a big cooperation hence communication can be overwhelming at times.

      Pros

      - Opportunity to work on any technology that you are interested in - Opportunity to grow vertically as well as horizontally (generalist) - Benefits - Corporate citizenship (MSFT encourages you to contribute to your cause in more than one ways) - Super smart and passionate people to work with

      Cons

      - Some groups are very bureaucratic - Certain lack of agility in getting things done (very subjective depends on which group you work on) - At times the criteria for promos is very fuzzy - Compensation as measured by base pay

      Pros

      Great managers, great teams, people will go out of their way to help you in your career - at least for me

      Cons

      Experience is highly dependent on the team that you work at. Some other teams are apparently not as well off for enjoyment.
