Pros

Flexibility - remote work. Good to great salary Great health care Great benefits Dynamic and solid company

Cons

High pressure culture. Experienced age based, and gender based bias continually. Microsoft shifts strategy each year - which really only gives it 9 months to execute. This means basically annual re-organizations, and poorly executed strategy is baked into the day-to-day. Change can be a very good thing, constant change creates constant instability.

Pros

Pay and benefits are competitive. Flexible work arrangements are very common. The actual work can be very interesting and rewarding once you get past all the management/corporate crap.

Cons

No job security. Always just waiting on the axe to fall and get shoved out. Rewards are all about how well you can market yourself to management, not about the work you do.

Pros

- good benefit - the starting pay is high compared with other jobs in Taiwan - business travel opportunities

Cons

- limited room for growth, only managed accounts in a certain place, can't see a larger view - the organization is too big and everyone does really specific job, hard to do things end-to-end - don't really have opportunities to co-work with other segments unless you're in technical support segments; for the other segments, it's more like closing the door and doing its own business
