Pros

People - Benefits & Perks - Culture - Wide range of products you can work on, some of which can have dramatic impact peoples lives, culture, work, etc. But Google is a large place with different sub-cultures and groups. There's good ability to move around internally if you're performing well so it can be what you make of it. Take advantages of the opportunities that come up and you can go far.

Bureaucratic Large and complex Performance review process
