Great while it lasted...
Pros: MS provides great benefits
Can have a good career run up to a certain level
Work from home is encouraged
Cons: Poor first line management.  Most managers have no previous management experience and are not trained well either.

Worst Sr. leadership including Steve Ballmer.  Especially Kevin Turner, COO running Sales also has pulled the moral down tremendously

Company doesn't know what to focus on as there are 100s of products and wants to be in every business.  Makes it hard to sell 'everything' or just focus on MS Office & Windows

Working from home is great, but hard to find people and collaborate.  Virtual teams of 10-20 people makes it difficult to get anything done on time
