Pros

Microsoft is a great place to work for anyone who is serious about a career. Everyone you work with is highly motivated and the challenges are as big as any you can find. The healthcare benefits are over teh top.

Cons

The talent level is tremendously high making it difficult to stand out from the crowd. Everyone is talented; you really have to be over the top good to be noticed.

Pros

The New Microsoft is a great place for college-grads and people who are earlier in their career. It is an awesome place to gain industry experience quickly and to gain respect by working at an industry leader.

Cons

Microsoft is too bureaucratic and political in some groups. Also, unlike the old days, who you know and nepotism plays a large part in how far and how quickly you advance career-wise. There are groups that are more entrepreuneurial and that are more like the Old Microsoft in the 90's, but those groups are few and far between.
