Microsoft has its good sides and bad sides.
Pros: Microsoft pays pretty well, has a pretty stable business, and is on the leading edge in some areas of technology.  I have no doubt there are tons of interesting jobs at Microsoft. Sadly, mine was not one of them.
Cons: Working in Finance at Microsoft often means spending a ton of time on small details of the business that are pretty dry.  Microsoft politics as a whole are frustrating, and often lead to a lot of unnecessary work on your part as a worker bee.
