Pros

Great benefits, great pay, stock is doing amazing. Ultimate golden handcuffs.

Cons

If you're stuck with a manager who isn't invested in your career growth, it's really hard to find a new path at the company. Many are overqualified for the roles they're in so career growth is very challenging.

Pros

I learned a lot from my colleagues the 5 years I was there. Everyone is very intelligent and generally great at what they do. Google is constantly pushing the envelope in every way that they do things, and there is a lot of tolerance for taking risks. Still remarkably transparent to employees despite its size (70k+ people). They also try to keep the environment fun. They aren't afraid to give large responsibilities to relatively young people (i.e. in mid twenties). Most large companies wouldn't trust young people with the same scope and impact of work. Very easy to get interviews with other companies once Google is on your resume.

Cons

They try to make the performance review process fair, but a lot of it is still based on politics and favoritism. Your experience is almost entirely dependent on your manager and core team. Google is overall a great company to employees, but your day-to-day experience is defined by your core team. That being said, the company is large and constantly hiring, so if you hate your team, you can probably move to a new one relatively quickly.
