Pros

Best experience you could get as an intern. Center of the innovative forefront and provides tons of hands-on work. Approve of management.

Cons

Nobody is willing to go out of their way to assist you with personal projects. Time-consuming and unintuitive tasks given occasionally.

Pros

Culture at Microsoft is awesome. I'm sure this was biased since I was interning there but they really take care of their employees / everyone seems to be happy to be there.

Cons

I honestly can't think of too many. Some older internal processes are a little inefficient and annoying but they are getting replaced in almost all cases with newer, better systems/processes.
