Pros

- Opportunity to work on any technology that you are interested in - Opportunity to grow vertically as well as horizontally (generalist) - Benefits - Corporate citizenship (MSFT encourages you to contribute to your cause in more than one ways) - Super smart and passionate people to work with

Cons

- Some groups are very bureaucratic - Certain lack of agility in getting things done (very subjective depends on which group you work on) - At times the criteria for promos is very fuzzy - Compensation as measured by base pay

Pros

Great managers, great teams, people will go out of their way to help you in your career - at least for me

Cons

Experience is highly dependent on the team that you work at. Some other teams are apparently not as well off for enjoyment.
