Pros

Great colleagues, competitive pay, industry leading benefits, nimble for a large company. The company is pursuing very lofty goals and really leading the industry on a number of fronts. After 8 years, Google is still a great place to work and I can't imagine working for any other company. The only thing that could pull me away would be to start my own venture.

Cons

Employees are almost exclusively from top tier universities and privileged backgrounds. Relative lack of intellectual and cultural diversity.

Pros

pay for returning employees. Great perks for employees who do a good job and don't buy apple products. Good job for lazy people who don't want to be a manager.

Cons

Not apple. I deserve 220k and who the hell thinks that this company is the best? It isn't! Have fun with your 500 dollar bonus. i'm going to investment banking!
