      The Annual Review Process is Total BS

      Pros

      The Medical Insurance. Some of the people. A day at MS support is like gaining 3 days of experience somewhere else

      Cons

      The pay sucks. It comes down to who you know, not what you know. The new job titles are a total joke - we get to see who make what. Now I'm really pissed.

      Microsoft; too big to be agile?

      Pros

      I enjoy the people I work with and the challenging environment. There is never a dull moment and always something new coming at you... usually at the speed of a VP escalation.

      Cons

      The decision process has become so convoluted that getting anything done becomes impossible. There are too many conflicting agendas across groups preventing truly amazing things from happening with the level of knowledge that is employed at Microsoft.

      Pros

      - surrounded by super smart people - great place to learn - ability to make huge impact in any market - flexible work environment - opportunity to move into other roles

      Cons

      - review process is lousy - work very hard just to be average, with no clarity on how to exceed - people are often overly analytical for very little gain - way too much email (100-150 emails per day is average) - inability to move quickly because you have to loop in many groups/people - quality work is not rewarded
