Pros

Great team to work for, wonderful people to work with, as well as tons of opportunities for professional growth if you can struggle through the boring stuff in the beginning.

Cons

Micromanagement can be a serious problem. Also, routine is always a killer. Also, sometimes I wish MS would eliminate a lot of overlapping managerial positions that it currently has because it sucks to be reporting to 15 layers of management on top of you.

Pros

Amount of responsibility given is quite good, and is satisfying. There is a lot of autonomy available if you can take it

Cons

long hours. Poor communication between Performance managers and Associates. Lack of fairness in the appraisal systems which totally fails to motivate one to see the purpose behind working hard if you are not the favored ones.
