Microsoft is perfect for a resume builder...
Pros: Salaries are ok
Benefits were at one time great, but they are getting cut each year
2 of the best managers that I have had in my career have been at Microsoft
The products Microsoft creates are incredible
Cons: The bad managers I have had are really bad
Senior management changes direction frequently and not all senior management is on the same page
Reorgs are constant so growing your career can be very difficult
Work/Life balance is little more than a frequent conversation but not realistic to the workload
