Pros

Things are changing. 'Lost decade' seems to be in the past. No more buckets. Free internal transitions. There are even Linux machines in Microsoft! Benefits are said to be not perfect as before but still good, very good.

Cons

Not that much of belief among the staff about good future of the company. Promotion is still extremely hard. Its criterias are still unobvious. Chaotic workflows, but as in any company of that size, I believe.
