Pros

Interesting software development projects and quality engineers.

Cons

Smaller office can be rife with cronyism and local management more concerned about their relationship with their superiors rather than their reports.

Pros

There is no finer collection of engineering talent on the planet. Good perks, great free food. Fantastic talks from visiting speakers.

Cons

Google doesn't compete on speed -- it competes on quality. In that regard it is a lot like Blizzard. So if you're entrepreneurial and like to attack new markets this is not a good place for you.
