Things are changing for the best, slowly.
Great benefits; good work-life balance.
The company loves its employees.
Lots of great projects and some amazing teams, if you can find them.

Still a lot of large, slow teams.
Still a lot of politics; low risk-taking culture.

Give autonomy to smaller teams.
Push harder to get rid of the "not built here" culture, especially in Windows and Office.
