Pros

Decent pay with good benefits.

Cons

Don't stay too long. It's not worth it. There are a lot of things happening in the world that may not be seen from within the Microsoft bubble.

Pros

big name, big brand, monopoly, big brother, it's everywhere, it's the matrix: you can't do without it, sadly: it's kind of a new governement

Cons

bugged to the core, slow like a snail, selfish and lazy like a civil servant, backward technology (in some services, it's 10 to 20 years if not more in late, security is none and clearly is a joke regarding the current state of what is possible), inergonomic, illogic, cumbersome, bad communication, complexity in essence, useless, ugly, verbose... Basically a good google and apple culture injection is needed there for the sake of sanity.
