Used to be Great - Now a Political Science Academy  and PPT OrgChart Creator Paradise
Pros: The campus is fantastic, it has multiple locations and each one has a different feel.  Downtown Bellevue has a city vibe (great for lunch, christmas shopping), the main campus(es) have a more classic Microsoft feel.  All feature easy access to the supplies you need to work a long day (a positive when you need it). Lots of great legacy to be proud of.
Cons: Leadership is awful, much more concerned about their own survival and being the best YESMEN they can, causing paralysis, gang behavior and zero execution.  VPs are rewarded for producing  org charts, data is ignored, product design is not implemented and they've lost their way in terms of producing anything that anyone wants at any level.  A great american tragedy.
