Pros

Interesting projects with latest tools on the market

Cons

- corporate hell - complete lack of privacy (open space with the boss in proximity, always) - lack of autonomy (tools are dictated by the architect, always) - lack of room for exploration/POC-ing tech - corporate-speak and lack of office cohesion (gossip is wild-spread, cutthroat behaviour from colleagues) - preferential treatment from the boss from one employee to another - salaries to a fraction of the market in spite of boasted profits - hours spent on the office are precisely counted with punch-cards

Pros

Work-life balance is great and getting an internship extended is very common.

Cons

Not on the cutting edge of tech at all and they seem to move slowly much like the rest of the auto industry.

Pros

Google work environment. Good people.

Cons

Our department suffered the cuts of automotive downturns and outsourcing work after department mergers. I would have stayed until retirement for another 10 or 15 years.
