Pros

Everything at Microsoft was fine. They cared about their people, paid well, and had great perks (really awesome health insurance).

Cons

- Commuting to Redmond from Seattle - Minimal growth (compared to Google, Amazon and others) means fewer fires, but also fewer opportunities to swing above your weight class - A growing group of "lifers" that only know the Microsoft way/tech makes a lot of the experience less transferable than other companies
