Pros

Reward for good efforts. Compensation package is tied to great performance. Very flexible place to work and only work out put matters, not how many hours slogged.

Cons

Can get static in a big establishment. u Can get blocked in career areas where there is little scope for change to companies outside microsoft.

Pros

The opportunities that the company provides to move up and to move laterally. It also great to be working around new technologies that will make an impact in the world.

Cons

With such a large workforce there seems to be a class divide between contractors and employees in the organization. Also, there appears to be some issues with cohesiveness in the company. Groups doing their own thing pretty much.

Pros

Internal Microsoft documents obtained by WashTech News show that Microsoft salaries have been stagnant or nudged only slightly higher over the past two years. Comments from current and former employees about the company's compensation and performance review system suggest a growing level of frustration among rank-and-file workers

Cons

Too long hours and no social life
