Pros

- highly competitive - play to win in the long haul - money cushion means this company is less affected by economic volatility - culture is relative open, fair, not terribly hierarchial (especially in marketing)

Cons

- sometimes the size means navigating the organization is tough - duplication of work across the organization - waste of resources by people driving political agenda

Pros

Excellent Value Proposition Strong well-know Products Great access to Technical Decision Makers Everyone wants to talk with Microsoft Unified Collaboration solutions are the Best Great Benefits for Employees. Microsoft has a tremendous giving cultture. Example they have a Giving campaign where they encourage every employee to give to their community.

Cons

Too much noise from consumer market. Everyone wants to talk with Microsoft, sometimes this creates waste due to a lack of focus for Techincal and Business Meetings. Broad solutions can be confusing for customers and licensing is a world all of it's own.
