Pros

Responsibility I was given right from the start to do what I thought was right, and support for it. Freedom to move introduce bold new ideas and rock the boat a little. The quality and level of intellect in Google was the most I'd experienced in my career (after stints in other tech giants). Being in the environment ups your game and makes you better.

Cons

Can seem chaotic to folks who might need more structure.

Pros

When my former company was acquired, I was not required to interview for my job and there were no changes to my salary. Google is paying out my unvested options and RSUs and gave me a grant of GSUs to boot. This was all very surprising to me as I had less than a year of experience when the acquisition began. Excellent professional development resources.

Cons

Having a list of approved languages is kind of a drag. I am also hoping there will be a place for me, in the future, outside of the former company wth which I was acquired.

Pros

Best perks a company can give. Collaborate with great and intelligent colleagues in a very fast-pace environment, with a wide variety of global career opportunities.

Cons

Since the last years more policy and red tapping is happening as it became harder for the company to retain its open and free culture.
