Pros

Respect and appreciation from management, high compensation, serious about healthy balance between work and life, excellent health plan, excellent frequent training opportunities.

Cons

Much of our advertising is not only ineffective, it's embarrassing. This is such a long-standing problem it seems like none of the current advertising/marketing executives understand just how awful our advertising is.

Pros

Working for Microsoft is like being in school. Pick any area of computer science and there is someone here working on it. Some of the smartest, hardest working people in the industry. The other great thing is the impact you can have in the world - when you check code into a product you have the satisfaction that it will be used by millions of people worldwide.

Cons

It is a big place and takes a long time to learn your way around.
