Program Manager 2

Pros

Microsoft offers an average salary and benefits package that includes a very good "Stay Fit" package but nothing that raises an eyebrow. The compensation bar is slowly becoming diluted. I am sure that I could get a comparable package at Amazon or Google.

Cons

Be aware that there is no preference for internal hires before external hires. You are always competing against someone else! Often times it is who you know, not what you know. You are always on guard for the "next layoff".

Pros

1) Flexible hours 2) Friendly culture 3) Good benefits 4) Overall the atmosphere in the company is welcoming, and friendly. 5) The projects are challenging and help you grow as a professional

Cons

1) Little access to sunlight and windows 2) Many projects don't get pursued until they are well established by another company. Makes it hard to do groundbreaking work. 3) Salaries don't measure up to the quickly increasing housing prices in Seattle.
