Love it
Pros: Incredibly talented, dedicated and creative team members. Fast-moving, and really focused on innovation since arrival of Satya Nadella. Very diverse. Great pay and benefits, with a lot of flexibility on working location if you are a Corporate staff member living outside the US. Work from home when not travelling.
Cons: Heavy travel schedule in regional roles (3-4 times per month). High stakes workload, very metric/scorecard focused which can sometimes neglect qualitative impact. Global roles are challenging from work/life balance perspective as can require meetings at unfriendly times of day/night.
