Pros

As long as you have a good manager, you can do wonders in MS. There are opportunities to grow in any discipline.

Cons

Lot of bureaucracy/politics, lack of good managers who can direct, guide, and bring up their people.

Advice to Management

They should seriously look into the feedback that employees give about their managers and take serious actions so that bad managers don't get away with anything they feel like doing.
