Pros

Microsoft does have the potential for you to interact with some of the smartest people in the business but you will have to work on one of the product teams. If you work for the part of the company that provides support then I pity you.

Cons

Well as some one described it 5 years at Microsoft is like ten years else where, the morale is so low and everybody operates out of fear. I have never ever created so many useless PowerPoint's at managements insistence. Also pleae do not think it a plus to have Microsoft as an employer on your resume the reputation is starting to spread...

Pros

The pay and benefits are pretty good (not great).

Cons

Most of the agressive business tactics that made Microsoft a powerhouse to be respected, feared, and (by some) reviled are a thing of the past. Instead of focusing on the competition, most people seem to spend their day figuring out how to beat the guy in the office next door.
