      Pros

      Immensely diverse and talented workforce, fantastic perks and working conditions. It feels like the most global company in the world. As an employee of Google you feel that you're in the center of the biggest innovations happening right now, and if you're are self-motivated and diligent you will be able to accomplish a lot in this company.

      Cons

      As the company gets larger and larger there's lot of red tape to deal with, and more levels of management are placed up the ladder.

      Great experience, with a few rough spots, from start-up to acquisition

      Pros

      Great Co-founders really set the tone of excellence through humility. Lots of young, hungry, smart people work here and that's a great thing. Everyday is a learning experience. I love my job and look forward to coming in every day. People around me always work hard so that pushes me to do the same. After work there is always someone with something going on, which is great and helps build the important team spirit.

      Cons

      Middle management across the company could use some training/work but processes have been put into place. Salaries/options were low across the board (but that doesn't matter too much with the acquisition now). The youthfulness of the staff can also lead to some immature handling of inter-office situations but this isn't all that common.
