      Pros

      -- Google employees are very bright (all have Ivy Educations) and enjoy coming to work everyday. The general sense that I get from talking to other employees is that we all feel that we are making the world a better place.

      Cons

      -- Google is a very flat organization despite its size. As such, you really have to differentiate yourself (amongst almost universally stellar applicants) and be persistent for years before you have an opportunity to grow into an even Junior management role.

      Pros

      Great people to work with. interesting problems to solve. I have met some many Googlers with a wide range of interests. People are very creative, driven and have a desire to change the world.

      Cons

      Compensation packages are not the best. There is no formal training. You're expected to stand on your own feet and work on the problems. One needs to be extremely creative to be able to keep up to the standard.

      Best job I've ever had

      Staff software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      By far the top reason is working with smart, competent people and the opportunity to have a big positive impact on the world. The resources and infrastructure are very nice as well. In general, Google is an engineering-centric company, and it is a great place to be a software engineer.

      Cons

      The bottom up culture is fun, but sometimes it can feel a bit chaotic with a sense of duplicated effort. Since everything must function at huge scale, it can sometimes take frustratingly long to get things done. Working with very talented people can bring on a certain amount of self-inflicted pressure to be productive.
