Pros

Some genuinely interesting technology, and most ICs I work with want to make the best product they can. Great benefits package, pay is average.

Cons

Management (in general) can make for some truly caustic work environments, sucking all the joy and morale out of groups. I've have seen some talented people in management who strive to improve their groups, but they are the exception, not the rule. Yeah, this sounds cliche, but areas of MS can make Dilbert look prophetic.

Good benefits, good atmosphere and campus; good infrastructure, A status symbol working at Microsoft,, Can talk to senior management without any restriction, you get your own private office

Cons

Less compensation as compared to others, very difficult to penetrate the existing crowd, kinda political atmosphere to work in it
