Enlightening
Pros: Fantastic learning experience, plenty of opportunity for growth and personal enrichment.  Benefits are fantastic, as well.  Lecture series at MS Research open to employees covering a wide variety of subjects across all disciplines.
Cons: Reorganization of divisions can cause unnecessary loss of positions, jobs sometimes depend on politics of higher ups within the organization.  Stressful as deadlines approach.
