      Too much Politics

      Pros

      You get to use the latest software. MS is a brand name and you get to work under MS brand.

      Cons

      You have to be in the right group there. Since it is such a big company, there are a lot of small groups that hardly do any tangible work and there are some managers who just get away with anything. They are not answerable to anyone. HR is really very weak and doesn't do anything to support an employee. There is a lot of politics and bureaucracy which is really sad!!!

      Not a good start...

      Pros

      - Working with smart people. - Fun events on campus. - Capable hardware. - Own office.

      Cons

      - Luck of the draw with managers. I unfortunately have an inexperienced manager who changes expectations of me on a weekly basis. Some expectations are way off the mark more inline with one who has been at the company for several years. - Lots of internal tools with no documentation. - No formal training to get up to speed. Expected to just learn things on the fly. Would be fine if things were documented better. Onboarding process varies with teams.
