Love the company but got RIF
Pros: Leadership is amazing with Satya heading up the company. I loved my job, it was challenging and extremely fun, I was truly happy and proud to work for such an great company.
Cons: Politics, like everywhere if you are not part of the circle of friends, you do not get that many opportunities, or awards. 
Being a remote employee in the marketing team is difficult as you do not get a lot of opportunities compared with others located in Seattle. 
I was part of the recent reduction in force and it was a hard pill to swallow as I thought I did a tremendous job and I was regarded as a loyal and efficient employee.
