Fear, Uncertainty & Doubt
Pros: The opportunity to learn about business and competition on a global scale. I enjoyed a rare purview into how a business designs, brands and markets new products and - some cases innovative ideas.
As an employee you will get to work with well educated, competent people, this is refreshing and can lead to intense intellectual debates generally of the technical kind. If you enjoy software engineering, debating and an unemotional attachment to your work, Microsoft is an ideal place to work. Microsoft is in the PC business, they admire fast providers and people who process fast.
Cons: Creativity is constrained except for perhaps marketing careers.
Illogical approach to problem solving.
Environment is dominated by software programmers and middle managers.
