Pros

The name recognition that goes along w/ the job and the quality of the engineers is good. It is a relatively flat organization and you can set your own job direction.

Cons

It is very difficult to know where management is headed. Over all there is more bureaucracy than there used to be. Not as nimble as I would like

Pros

People are willing to share knowledge which is not the norm in this industry. This is the first place I have worked where the people are great about that. Also, I get to work on cool projects that no one else in the world works on.

Cons

A company like this requires a lot of long hours, so the work and life balance is often hard to come by.

Pros

I work w/ a diverse set of people. You have have great people within the company w/o a lot of micromanagement. You have the freedom to do a job w/o contantly being checked on.

Cons

Google can be a bit overwhelming w/ the volume of things that you have to learn. It can also be chaotic because you do have freedom but so much is always going on at the same time.
