Pros

Work life balance is definitely one of the greatest. Pay is super competitive given it's part of MSFT. Colleagues in general are very nice and are willing to collaborate. Some of them are smart and work really hard. Work is not super interesting but still give you a lot of chances to learn. A good place to start as a new grad.

Cons

Sometimes the work is not super interesting or challenging, and I don't feel enough growth.
