Pros

Microsoft is now more open to working with other companies, employees are no longer frowned upon for using non-MSFT devices, it is becoming more agile, and there's even a renewed sense of urgency within the ranks about the work they are doing.

Cons

In some orgs it is hard to trust that everyone is getting a fair deal. Too many large teams have Indian managers from top to bottom. The message is, if you are not one of us, there is no place for you in management. Some teams struggle to find their focus with so many org changes; sometimes 2-3 times per year.
