Pros

You get plenty of benefits like free devices, betas, and other cool things. It's a technology lover's dream. Great health benefits as well.

Cons

Ideas can sometimes get lost in the mix. Microsoft is still way behind the competition, both in development practices and in shipping products. Growth is also really slow unless you're willing to sacrifice your work-life balance.

Pros

Good place to work: location, compensation, smart good people, interesting job and lots of high paced innovations in many teams. Pro Sports Club is awesome and paid by company.

Cons

Review system forces people to focus on their personal goals in the competition against team members instead of working towards common goals. No matter of your contribution or how well you work with feature crew the personal relationships with your manager and further in the chain of management are crucial to the formal success. Team often loses technically strong people due to this non-technical reason. Many of the office spaces do not have windows. This is an awful experience not to see a glimpse of the natural light during the whole day.
