Pros

Smart people. Solving large scale problems. Great office facilities.. One big MS family. Dog food the latest tech. Getting Windows Surface tablet. Multi vertical business company

Cons

Cross core and cross country teams not always get along. Some projects are so big that you get partial ownership which can affect your work. You could get stuck in their tech stack and not move on to other things later.
