Pros

You get to use the latest software.

MS is a brand name, and you get to work under the MS brand.

Cons

You have to be in the right group there. Since it is such a big company, there are a lot of small groups that hardly do any tangible work. There are some managers who just get away with anything. They are not answerable to anyone. HR is really very weak and doesn't do anything to support an employee. There is a lot of politics and bureaucracy, which is really sad.

Advice to Management

Please get your act together and have some conscience!
