Microsoft has become the IBM of 30 years ago, a Dinasour.
Pros: You'll have plenty of opportunities to learn and from smart people all over the world.  Their network / IT infrastructure is world class.  Hard to beat.
Cons: People have stayed with the company too long.  There are lots of dinasours at MS.  The old timers make things difficult for new people who join.  They kill your enthusiasm.  Tremendous politics in the company.  Many good ideas are killed or blocked by people who who don't want to see others do well.
