Great place to work
Pros: Microsoft can be an awesome place to work if you are in the right organization. The benefits are really top notch, the pay is good, there are a ton of opportunities so if you don’t like your current role you can often find another that is interesting. They’re really taking strides and trying to show up when it comes to D+I efforts - they have A LOT of work to do but it’s nice they are trying.
Cons: Since it’s such a great place to work, you can often find people who are just coasting until retirement. There’s a lot of complacent people, especially in the more senior positions. Also, on some teams (not all!) there can be a very competitive, corporate vibe. Sometimes this results in less team work and more people chasing the spotlight.
