Great place to make an impact!
Pros: In Microsoft you get to have the broadest impact on the industry and the world. It is exciting and scary.
The compensation is good and when you get to a partner level, it is phenomenal (really!).
The company is built for the long term, there is no rush for short term gains. This also means not burning the employees with very long hours.
The management team is smart, even brilliant.
Cons: You have to battle bad reputation, explain some of the legal woes.
