Great Place to Work
Pros: -Unsurpassed pay and benefits
-Fun place to work
-Great technology and always cool things to try out before they hit the market
-everyone is accessible
Cons: -Contrary to popular belief, MS has some good managers, but when you get a bad one, it is the worst you've ever had. My last two years there were terrible because of two horribly incompetent, arrogant managers
-Work-life balance is paid lip service only
-Career dev is a joke
