Pros

Almost all employees at Microsoft make enough money to be comfortable. We work on amazing products with some of the brightest in the industry.

Cons

I've never had more meetings in any other job. Management don't listen to employees. Honesty isn't regarded as a good quality. Liars do very well at Microsoft.

Pros

Great opportunity to advance. Pay is on the nose. People are crazy smart. When you talk about tech companies that are on the cutting edge Microsoft is top notch.

Cons

Review system still is broken even though they say it has changed. Behind the curtain it remains a mess. Employees if they stay too long in groups get stuck and have to leave.

Pros

vast opportunities to explore within Microsoft boundaries, best standards for work ethics and motivated colleagues around you, impact is global and you interact with teams and people from different geography and culture as part of working as a program manager

Cons

sometimes its easy to get holed into a super small piece of the problem, get overwhelmed by the sheer scale of the product and loose focus from the big picture
