A Great Place to Network and Learn
Pros: Once you get your foot in the door there are lots of opportunities to network. It is possible to quickly move up if you are determined and results driven. Microsoft has a good transit program and provides free Orca cards for their employees, including vendors.
Cons: Commute is far if you live in Seattle and have to deal with traffic. Reorganizations seem to happen almost yearly and may result in moving to different buildings but this depends on the department you work in. Security requirements can take a while to go through so be patient with the process.
