Pros
No company has ever done more to ensure the happiness and comfort of their employees. It has of course grown more compartmentalized and beaurocratic as it has grown but it remains a rather open playing field. Google also fosters a fertile and receptive breeding ground for homegrown ideas and suggestions, some of which has grown into successful consumer products. I also continue to feel good about working for a company that takes ethics and "doing the right thing" so seriously.
Cons
Extremely competitive. Incredibly high bar set for performance.
