Pros

This is a casual and smart environment, with a lot of great benefits. There is never an opportunity to be bored, and the company seems to encourage long hours by providing a great workplace with gaming rooms and napping areas, as well as gourmet meals thrice daily.

Cons

A lot of people come right out of school, and they expect the world on a silver platter. New college grads got used to fresh blueberries in the morning for breakfast, and now think this is a terrible place to work without those berries, but we still get free meals! It can be a snobby atmosphere, especially in the New York office, with Ivy league grads showing off their college brands. It is somewhat pompous, especially when these bright techies lack social skills.

Pros

Low risk work place and leader in the space. CEO is one of the best and well respected. Great place to start right out of school.

Cons

Slower growth means less chance of advancement. No more major paydays here. If you are in sales realize that Google is an engineering company and not a sales focused company.
