Microsoft has great pay and benefits. The people are amazing to work with, they are some of the brightest individuals I have ever met in my entire life.

Cons

Very difficult to get in. The corporate ladder is existent, but some may not mind it because of the culture and people at Microsoft.

Pros

The Office Division probably has the best work/life balance of any division at Microsoft.

Cons

It's really difficult to change culture or innovate processes. While they have been revamping their entire engineering process lately, there's still a lot of work to do.
