      Pros

      the benefits, especially the food and fluid hours, are great. so is the fact that everyone around you is incredibly smart.

      Cons

      i think google is expanding too quickly, and that they are letting in too many people who don't meet the standards. for example, i knew an employee who claimed that they didn't have any code to show for the past several months of work because their computer's hard drives crash, yet everyone knows that no one stores code on their own computer... there are version control repositories.additionally, i know great people who have not been hired for random reasons. such as failing an interview which required coding in C over the phone...

      Pros

      The work is really challenging and interesting with a high level of independence and self direction. It's a great place for those with the drive and initiative to succeed. Employees are treated very well and the benefits are great. Managers are pretty good at encouraging work life balance and I'm often told to get out of the office if I'm there too late. And of course, the free food is delicious.

      Cons

      It can feel a bit anonymous down in the gears of the giant machine. If you don't work in Engineering, you can sometimes feel like a second class citizen. Career development support for employees is almost non-existent.
