Pros

Same benefits as Alphabet (e.g. healthcare, dental, vision, 401K match, etc.)

Cons

Like all of Alphabet's Other Bets, Waymo has no idea how to get where it wants to go.

Pros

Neat technology. A shadow of google culture for better or worse.

Cons

As a vehicle operator you are somewhat of a second class employee. There are maybe 2% of contractors that move into salaried positions, don't expect that you'll be one of them. By the time I left they were letting contractors go to hire new vehicle operators at lower wages. Also they were reducing the snacks! That used to be a strong point. Come on, Waymo.
