Do employers really put much stock in Microsoft certification for programmers? Like, how much?

Its not necessarily like that. Its a good thing to have, but not a necessity. I am Microsoft Certified, but I don't think it gives me a whole lot of bargaining power. It definitely looks better than not having it, but not better than someone who has more experience and no certs.
