Pros

Google is a great work environment. Of course, the food is wonderful. In addition, it is such a good opportunity to work with really talented people on interesting and difficult problems. There are team opportunities but also space for individual work. You can't beat the resources and access to data. There are many opportunities to build on work that others have done in order to enhance one's own work. Overall, a very interesting and exciting place to work.

Cons

Many people work very long hours, so it feels that you must do likewise in order to be considered a good employee.

Pros

Google as a company has a great reputation, the products are innovative and often very fast improving. The colleagues are also the best colleagues I ever had - highly motivated, helpful and normally very clever.

Cons

Compensation is absolutely not competitive, even if you do a great job career opportunities are very limited because Google prefer to hire senior people from external.
