Microsoft is not bad

Pros

The company is big enough that you may find a niche that you belong in

Cons

the worst thing here by far is that everything is measured on "time served". Despite there being actual merit things to celebrate, the only celebrations worth mentioning are those that happen when someone has x many years here. Everything seems to revolve around that. It's rather ridiculous.

Pros

Good benefits (401k matching, non-profit donation matching, company shuttles, etc.) but not many perks (no free food, snacks, etc.). Quality of managers vary between teams, but generally better trained than most in the industry. Learning opportunities abound as long as you're self-motivated.

Cons

Office politics are embedded into the culture. This may slowly change as new leadership is introduced / reorgs happen, but divisions are deep.
