Pros

Microsoft's brand value provides instant recognition and invites respect Processes ensure great quality of end product I worked with 3 managers all of whom were awesome

Cons

Some of the teams have long release cycles so work progresses a bit slowly Not a downside for everyone but it would have been perfect if Microsoft had a development centre in Delhi-NCR

Pros

They have very good benefits and pay, nice people to work with, opportunities within company

Cons

Not agile environment due to layers of management, not best collaboration, like to get rid of staff that hasn't moved up but been there a long time so they can replace with someone earning less, not very loyal, expect long working hour,

Pros

This places is an awesome workplace, great quality work, helping peers, amazing projects, and the best work life balance

Cons

Nothing much I suppose. The only thing is they sometimes have less pressure and work, which doesnt help in learning much, and probably more independent module handling
