Pros

* great cloud offering * great sales team setup * good product+good seller=quota exceeded ;) * fnatastic trainings / work setup

Cons

* mid level management not willing to transform * internal relations more important than real result/impact * too much of internal promotions (or with same type companies) like no 'new blood' in nature causes DNA problems in future :)

Pros

(Still) many opportunities here - you just need to be smart enough / be networked good enough to realize and jump on them. Can be challenging given the scale of MSFT though... 😏

Cons

Way too much bureaucracy here and way too many managers just looking at budgets rather than focusing on innovation. A better mix of both would help but that's been a problem for years since we started hiring management execs from companies which are doing nothing else than doing so....
