Good for Professional growth

Program manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

NG is good at giving people opportunities. The engineering matrix in MS ensures that people can rotate to new opportunities and grow in their professional development while staying in a company and gaining tenure.

Cons

It is a large company. In the end, you are just an employee. The recent sale of 3 different units of the business and 6400 employees shows that whether you work there 2 weeks or 30 years, you only matter as much as the revenue.
