Business Outlook
Pros
- Smart people - Outstanding perks (gym, food, massage) - Good pay/benefits - World-changing culture from Larry and Sergey driving the mission of Google forward
Cons
- Various levels of talent in the broader organization. Although some of the employees are inspirational, e.g., Senior Engineering Directors and Strategy leads who are seasoned, brilliant leaders from McKinsey, Goldman, etc - the majority of the workforce is comprised of apathetic, lazy technical and sales staff who just need the paycheck to cover their jumbo Bay Area mortgage - Career development and skillset training is a bit limited compared to other fast-paced work environments
