Pros

Career opportunities, benefits, nice working environment

Cons

The companie's future is slightly endangered. I am not sure its development directions are solid and clearly defined, the company tries to be innovative, but it seems the products have reached their evlutional limits. While most of software applications domains are occupied by strong competitors, Microsoft may meet its dead-end as it discovers that there is all (or almost all) have had invented. More or less.

Pros

Having worked with MSFT technologies for over 12 years, one would dream of working for the “Mother Ship”. For many MCSE’s and techies alike, there is no better company then to work for. Playing and tinkering with the latest bits like Windows Servers or SharePoint is a dream come true. Even if you are not a uber-geek, one can still respect the level of technical brilliance this company offers.

Cons

MSFT tries to do so many things. Even though the power of software seems endless, the company itself needs to find its true identity. Are we a consumer company like Apple, maybe a gaming company like Nintendo, or perhaps we’re an enterprise business company like SAP or Oracle. What about an internet company like Google. We need to take an insightful evaluation of our strengths and focus on them. No company can do all things great. This ultimately leads to dilution of our brand.
