Good benefits. A large company usually means a lot of places to transfer without having to leave.
A lot of politics internally means a lot of time spent working on things that get axed at the last minute. Many managers spend most of their time working outside their teams for political reasons and promotions, and often aren't there for their team.
Get your politics sorted out.
I interviewed for a SWE summer intern position. First, there was an on-campus interview which was half an hour. Later, they flew me to Redmond for on-site interviews. My interview consisted of two rounds.
Overall, I thought the interview was fair. The interviewers were very personable and smart! First, I completed a straightforward phone interview. Then, I moved on to the onsite portion, which included 3-4 interviews and a lunch.
Four interviews were conducted, each with a member from a different team. A small break was scheduled between each interview. The interviews were mostly focused on technical questions, with whiteboarding occupying the majority of each session.
