      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.

      Pros

      Good perks. There's a lot of smart people that work here. If you're a geek like me, then you've found your home.

      Cons

      Although promotions are said to be fair, it is all how you game the system and play the game. Don't expect to be put on amazing projects, those are for the super elite. There is a 3-4 year exit strategy here, and lately it seems its shortened to 1 to 2 years. New employees come in and realize this place isn't all that it's cracked up to be.
