Pros

- Cutting edge technology - Very smart people - Fame - Benefits (through end of 2012) - Learning and growth opportunities

Cons

- Some teams value quantity over quality - be careful where you end up - Benefits are going away - many tend to think Microsoft is the only employer with good insurance coverage; this is not true, as many others offer insurance with no copays or deductibles - Food is unhealthy (calories, fat, sodium, etc.) and expensive at our cafeterias (minor exception in the Commons) - SDET staff tend to stagnate in their level longer than other roles
