Pros

Great benefits, smart people, good pay, good work/life balance, flexible working hours. It's in Seattle, the best city on earth.

Cons

Terrible executive business strategy (reliance on monopoly), Steve Ballmer, flat stock price for a decade, uncool perception, Zune, Bing, stagnation.

Advice to Management

Steve Ballmer needs to retire, and Sinofsky needs to take the helm. We've missed every major business opportunity in the last decade and still rely on Windows and Office for almost all of our revenue.
