      Pros

      Lots of benefits, great relationships with peers and managers, team feeling.

      Cons

      Applying to other positions outside your country of residence is not easy, takes lots of time (you have to apply hundreds of time to the same role internally...) and you need contacts before doing that... sometimes I believe that is easier changing the company than trying to be relocated within Microsoft! Career opportunities depends on the country you are living, in Redmond there are lots of openings, but are not easy to get due to visa issues.

      Amazing place to work

      Pros

      A leading company. Great place to work, work/life balance not easy to achieve but doable. In my case most of the managers I had /met walk what they say. As you start achieving your goals, career opportunities open up. You can achieve bold goals, have real impact. You will usually get the recognition to your contributions. Solid values and policies to foster a great working environment and company reputation.

      Cons

      Sometimes the "not invented here" syndrome shows up. The culture sometimes make people stay in the comfort zone doing things in the way they've been doing for years rejecting ideas/comments/assessments from people that bring other experiences. Hopefully the new CEO will start changing this. Salaries are not the best in town. The scorecard culture needs improvement to allow mid term strategies and avoid arriving late to most of the parties.
