Pros
I joined Microsoft just out of college and it was a great experience. There are a lot of smart and cool people, the pay is good, and it's a great place to learn more than you can possibly get in classroom.
Cons
There can be periods of time where you have to work weekends or late nights to ship a product. Sometimes I felt chained to my email. Some of the codebases are old and rich but mindingly-complicated.
