Pros

Great products being developed. Interesting mix of people. Lots to learn.

Cons

Google is run as a business. When the interests of employees and the company diverge the outcome is not always deemed satisfactory by some. Sometimes this results in good people leaving the company despite them liking their existing role / location.

Pros

Surrounded by some of the most brilliant, creative people in the industry. Everyone is typically excited to work on their respective projects and unified behind the vision of the company.

Cons

Things are starting to move slower; this is a natural construct of operating at as large of a scale as Google does, but the company has lost its start-up feel.
