Pros

Very good office, comprehensive HR support humanitarian vacation policy, opportunity to work with global colleagues

Cons

Lots of technologies MS used are just for their own, not popular for other companies. Salary is not competitive. MS is not like the previous giant anymore. And the work/life balance in my team is very bad.
