      Great company, great culture, if you're in the right product area

      Pros

      Microsoft makes you feel at home - as though you have a family away from home, you're involved in something bigger than yourself and the company cares deeply about your well-being and your correct placement.

      Cons

      If you end up in the wrong group for you, or a group that is being mismanaged, it can be a very hard place to work - this didn't happen to me but did happen to people around me. Microsoft is a huge company so you should be able to find the right place for you. No reason to wash out at all.

      Company with great ethics, only horrible management

      Pros

      1. You can control, which area you wish to build your expertise on. 2. Lots of great teams to work in. 3. Great perks. 4. Totally a personal call, if you wish to extend your peers as 'beer budies'.

      Cons

      1. Since recently, terrible politics has cropped up. 2. Leads/Management care about you, only if you don't spot the blemishes on their work. 3. Gaining visibility in teams has become such a necessary evil, that some would resort to doing some senseless work & canvass opinions from alike dumb leads (that other true contributors don't get their own due kudos for contribution). 4. Recently, Employee MS poll lost it's confidentiality & leads/Managers could specifically spot, what was each exployee's feedback on them( which was supposed to be highly confidential).

      Bad Managers!

      Pros

      You can learn a lot from taking classes and getting books from the library.

      Cons

      If you happen to get a bad manager, no matter how smart you are, nothing or no one can help you grow in your career.
