Pros: It is a big company with lots of opportunities.  You have lots of options for advancement in a wide range of areas, ranging from buisness to operations to finance to ...

Microsoft also do a very good job of hiring smart, competent people.  I work in the European Operations Center in Dublin and I can honestly say that everyone I work with does their job well and has a good attitude towards their work.  This is a refreshing change from some other places I have worked.
Cons: All areas of the company are totally budget driven with lots of money at the start of the fiscal year and none for the last quarter
