Great place to work unless you have a bad manager
Super medical benefits.
Chance to move to a different group after a couple of years. If you work in Redmond, this benefit is very attractive.
Lots of smart people.
You will get your own private office room (you might need to wait 1-3 years sometimes). I was lucky to get my own office after 6 months, and having that privacy was great for focus.
A bad manager can ruin you. In my case, my manager in the second group was over-demanding, and it made life difficult.
Bureaucracy can be a damper, depending on your group.
Move fast and be bold, like Google. Come up with inspired products, like Apple.
