      Microsoft's brilliance and innovation comes with too much baggage, and too many hot-heads

      Pros

      The best parts about working at Microsoft are: networking with some of the most talented and motavated minds in the industry, the ability to have a part to play in software with a huge footprint and high exposure, the benefits are awesome, there are ample opportunities to move around and see a lot of the company, and the learning and self-improvement opportunities are endless.

      Cons

      The are a lot of politics. I was sometimes stunned at how some people were able to climb the ladder and others weren't. It's definitely a big game. Compensation and bonuses are there if you play the game well. Prepare for a cutthroat ride if you are a User Experience profession just trying to do the right thing - way too easy to become a "design-machine".

      Great place to work, unless you're not a developer.

      Pros

      Great benefits package, college like atmosphere on main campus. Pretty buildings.

      Cons

      If you are not on main campus, you are treated like a pariah. There is definitely a caste system in place within the company, with contractors and what's left of the support organization at the bottom of the pile.
