A great place to start your career
Massive brand name recognition. Lots of learning opportunities, challenging projects, brilliant co-workers, and of course, a resume builder. The breadth of opportunities at Microsoft is unparalleled. From Operating Systems, Compilers/IDEs, Games, Hardware, Web Services, to Office tools, these guys have done it all. There is something for everyone there.

Since I have not worked there for very long, I have not felt any other downsides.
Make the Yahoo deal. They will never be cheaper. Also get onto the cloud computing race in a big way.
