Pros

- Good benefits - A variety of teams and products that you can work on - Many smart people - Company is trying to make some changes to be more agile

Cons

- Benefits used to be even better - Very large company so you can feel like you're not having much impact at times - Still moves somewhat slow compared to smaller, leaner companies - Changing teams is almost as much effort as changing companies

Pros

Microsoft can be thought of as a company of companies that's changing it's ways to become united and up to date. Microsoft has very good benefits, perks, and opportunity to work on many things.

Cons

Quite bureaucratic and still very much so transitioning to be a agile and modern software company. At times still hold onto old methodologies and practices as well as sticking to old technologies.
