Marketing Consultant
Pros: Flex hours, competitive pay, interesting projects, Redmond campus caters to employees.  Nice perks and fun lively environment.
Cons: Competitive environment, reorgs are often, lack of management training shows in how newer managers treat their teams.  Microsoft seems to hire an overabundance of Type A personalities.  I didn't see a lot of contract employees turning into FTE employees... the unwritten rule is you have to leave Microsoft and then "come back" a year or so later to be really considered for full-time employment.
