      Pros

      Great place to work. If you have a good manager (and most of the SRE managers in Zurich ARE good), you'll always find a way to remain engaged ad grow.

      Cons

      it's a big company requires process- and people-oriented skills, more than just results-oriented enthusiasm to succeed. As an SRE, you use mostly home grown tools and technologies: it's easy to loose touch with the rest of the world. Working at Google is a tradeoff between tactical skills and strategic experience.

      Great place to work for a few years

      Pros

      Great compensation, awesome perks, friendly co-workers, and a focus on work-life balance. You also get the prestige / cache / expense accounts associated with working for one of the world's most successful tech firms.

      Cons

      The company is very big -- and highly bureaucratic. While there is the ability to move internally - the best positions are located in Mountain View and New York still feels like a satellite office. The day-to-day job functions are also not as interesting as one would hope. There is little room for innovation -- most days consist of checking off pre-determined tasks. Might be boring for someone looks to think out of the box / work out of their comfort zone.
