      Still a good place to work, but not the same place it was in the early years.

      Pros

      Working with and learning from some of the most brilliant engineers in your field. Tech talks, visiting speakers, classes, etc. give you lots of opportunities to learn about a myriad of subjects. Working on some of the most interesting and innovative projects in the world. Excellent senior management.

      Cons

      Long work hours -- 10+ hours/day is typical for many engineers. Middle management is hit and miss. Some managers I've worked with are excellent, others mediocre. Haven't had any managers that I thought were actively out to get me.

      Great perks, mediocre career opportunities

      Pros

      Great benefits, this is the main reason people site for working at Google. My colleagues were fantastic and make my daily life at Google much happier.

      Cons

      Your job is generally dreadfully boring, so the good perks are the only thing you can really look for to. Once these are taken away I'm not really sure why someone would want to work there, usually perhaps you are an engineer. There is no real career growth at Google, because no one wants to leave, this forces the best talent to leave the firm prematurely while the good old boys keep their well paid jobs.
