Pros

Microsoft gives software developers a lot of personal freedom over both the work and the work environment. I can order my own supplies, customize my office as I see fit, schedule my own trips and meetings, and select my own training courses. I choose when I show up for work and when I leave, and what to wear while I'm there. I can eat on campus or off, reheat something from home in the kitchen or scavenge leftovers from meetings. I can even work remotely from home (within reason).

Cons

The people here are very driven and a little socially dysfunctional

Pros

If you want to have a decent place to work and just simply wait for your golden years, and retire peacefully, this is the place to be. You'll be in a cozy management position with no responsibilities and no accounting for your actions, or on an individual contributor role, where you'll be only in meetings and bullshitting others. They have good benefits, pretty safe environment, in a lot of ways similar to government jobs. In short, it's great for people that just want a steady 9 to 5 , relaxed environment and job security with decent benefits added to the soup.

Cons

Highly political, full of incompetent low and middle managers. Some team are better some are worse
