My 14 years at Microsoft
Pros: Usually get to work with smart people
Stable company
You work here if you want to change the world
Solid Technology company
Cons: Reviews are not tied to your job performance or the work you do. More of a popularity contest
Very political environment, agree with their politics, or get out of the company
Technical people are leaving the company for greener pastures
Lot of bureaucracy, slow moving
Not focused on gaining market share or revenue
Employees compete with each other not with competitors, look at stock price compared to other tech companies
