Meh. Acquired Into Microsoft
Pros: Work/life balance
Treated reasonably fairly after acquisition
1-2 year runway for acquired company
Cons: Pay is below average
Lots of friction to "achieve more" 
Rewards/compensation process is poor and ambiguous. Expectations are often not consistent.
MSFT spends surprising amount on PR to shape brand image. But experience once inside is drastically different than projected.
