Microsoft in Brazil
Pros: Microsoft in Brazil is an excellent option if you are looking for a position in Sales.  Benefits are ok and morale is usually high.
Cons: If you aren't with Sales or Marketing, there is very little space for you there.  Also, bonus involves lots of politics as performance is attributed along a fixed curve (i.e., only X people get one rate, Y people get another rate and Z people MUST get a bar review.  
As they say in poker, if you don´t know after some time who is the fool, the fool is you.  So, if after some time working for MS you don't know who is going to get the bad review, it is probably an indication you are the one.
