Good Luck - be wise with your decision.
Pros: The salary is good, better than most companies. But that comes at a cost! Don't kid yourself, there's no work-life balance. they say you'll travel up to 70%, but that's a joke. You'll be lucky if you're ever home.
Cons: Review process horribly arduous, pathetic level of business acumen, managers are uneducated, no business degrees or MBAs, surprised Microsoft has become what it is to date. However, they build on the backs of those that do work. How Bill Gates managed to steal an OS from another and sell it as his own work is indicative of how Microsoft operates. I can see this turning into another Nortel story in the next two years. Learn the definition of Machiavellianism. If that's what you're like, you'll do well at this company.
