Pros

Prestige, opportunity, excellence ... MS is a fantastic place to work, I enjoy what I do. Everyone goes into work liking the people around them, and you are part of a team of performers. There is a great deal of trust in what you get done, you can get more chances to do more important work if you show what you can get done.

Cons

It's the street, and life can be tough. Obviously, you have to have the stomach for the hours, the brain to do figures, and character to thrive under adversity. It'd be a lie to say that people aren't worried, but we'll pull through.

Pros

Very good co-workers, Great technology stack. Lot of new technologies and integration with current work.

Cons

They dont even give you a MS cup. They ask you to buy it for 5$. So cheap! Management big on "Giving back", Immediate managers do not like it and are not supportive. Lay off employees twice a year to show profits. Only worried about shareholders and clients. Don't know the criteria for lay-off. So, you are always worried if it is your turn. They boast about mental health and wellness. No good, when they layoff employees like this. HR = Horrible Resources. When you are laid off, they shoo you away as if you are a fly. You feel miserable. They themselves say - "We are better than Facebook or Oracle. We dont fire you at 6 AM over email." Gosh! What a comparison!
