Pros

As part of MicroStrategy's professional services team, you have an opportunity to work with some of the company's largest clients helping to address their most challenging technical issues. The bonus structure of the professional services organization rewards the consultants that are able to prove themselves and keep themselves billable. The consultants do a good job of collaborating with each other to help others address problems that they might have already solved or are more familiar with.

Cons

As a consultant, you don't have a whole lot of control over where your next assignment may be. It varies from consultant to consultant, but there is definitely the possibility of having to travel across the country for an extended period of time depending upon where the client is located.

Pros

Technical people at MicroStrategy are great and smart people. The technology is sophisticated and multi-faceted, making MicroStrategy a great place to learn about technology.

Cons

Management is terrible at all levels, but especially at the highest levels. The business is completely clueless as to where we actually sit in the world, with regard to customer need, as well as in the competitive landscape. Management has zero interest in providing a positive work environment where the employee is truly empowered.
