Pros

At Microsoft, you’ll get the best on-the-job training in the world, while enjoying a casual, flexible work environment where you can choose everything

Cons

Microsoft at Work was a short-lived effort promoted by Microsoft to tie together common business machinery, like fax machines and photocopiers, with a common communications protocol allowing control and status information to be shared with computers running Microsoft Windows. Similar efforts for other markets included Microsoft at Home and Cablesoft. By any measure these efforts were a dismal failure; it appears only a small number of devices using Microsoft at Work were ever released before disappearing without a trace. Microsoft has since re-used the "at Work" term for a section of their web site describing various tips and tricks for using Windows in a business environment.

Pros

Career opportunities, benefits, nice working environment

Cons

The companie's future is slightly endangered. I am not sure its development directions are solid and clearly defined, the company tries to be innovative, but it seems the products have reached their evlutional limits. While most of software applications domains are occupied by strong competitors, Microsoft may meet its dead-end as it discovers that there is all (or almost all) have had invented. More or less.
