Pros

Good people to work with.

Managers who tried to help my career (not always skilled at doing so).

Good work-life balance.

A chance to work on products that many people will use.

Cons

very Redmond-centric. I was at a small office and we were less important.

Too much overhead, too few developers managed by too many.

You have to sell yourself and your accomplishments to get ahead.
