      Satisfaction at Google depends on the department you're in.

      Pros

      Google is a great place to start your career. They're one of the few companies that was willing to train new college grads and let them join a fun, youthful team of smart people. Plus, the food and benefits can't be beat.

      Cons

      It really depends on what department you're in. Often times, you can feel like just a number, even though Google really prides themselves on having a start up culture. Google is a large corporation, and that is starting to show more and more due to the economy.

      One of the best companies to work for

      Pros

      Great transparency within the company where you can learn a lot. Abundance of great, intelligent people in the company. Lots of exciting opportunities within Google. Great benefits and perks. Employees are well respected by company.

      Cons

      Too Mountain View centric. Most key persons are in HQ and most important decisions are made there. It's a pain for offices to collaborate across timezones. For example, it's impossible for JAPAC, EMEA, and the US to meet together.
