Vantaggi
Great opportunity for professional growth, good pay, incredible benefits. Working in the Puget Sound region (HQ), the opportunities to take on different and challenging job opportunities is vast. The company is constantly, through a disciplined and thorough review process, driving employees to consider the direction of their own careers. It's not a lip service hassle like I've experienced at other companies. My wife actually said, "I love Microsoft," the other day when reading a medical insurance explanation of benefits. Our medical benefits are as good as they get. When I checked in for a doc's appointment the other day, the administrative person said, "You have the best benefits. No one has benefits like this!" If you have a young family like I do, this is very meaningful!
Svantaggi
The commute can be difficult if you work in Redmond.
