Pros and Cons - Just Like Any Other Big Company

Pros

Amazing people who are really talented and bright, loads of employee benefits

Cons

Career development is virtually impossible if you come into the company at senior level. Far too Mountain View centric in recent years - need a more global perspective. Difficult to grow careers after middle management unless you are prepared to move to HQ in the US

Pros

Good perks (what's left of it), still some good folks around, people that cares.

Cons

New hire from the east coast is changing the culture for the worse. People are being pushed out, an army of people are being hired to support her votes and she's clear cutting the infrastructure for a short term gain. It has taken a decade to build Google and she's single handedly destroying it from the inside. Google is too valuable to Let this continue but no one is brave to stop her. The founders have to reengage and see what's going on. We can't simply become another company. We have a special mandate to history. We take care of the meek and the money will follow, not the other way around.
