Pros

Microsoft overall is a good place to work at. The pay is good, as are the benefits. Offices are well maintained and pleasant. There's a large variety of projects to choose from, activities after work, and an option for relocation.

Cons

However, due to its size, there's often too much bureaucracy.

Also, there's huge variance between groups, which makes it confusing.

Advice to Management

More focus on engineering excellence and better valuation for expert employees. The problem is that sometimes there's too much focus on delivery, rather than quality. Also, more focus on good engineering skills.
