Microsoft is still a great place to work
Pros: Good pay and benefits.  They recently dropped a 5% attrition goal so now good employees aren't dismissed to meet a quota.  Still a fairly relaxed atmosphere, working with great people.
Cons: Pressure to meet goals that are not always reasonable still exists, but for most roles goals are high but attainable.  Microsoft has grown and now has way too many layers of management, most of whom are unnecessary and spend their time trying to appear relevant.
