Pros

google is a really global company they send you around the world to california, your business partners are global, you operate across time zones using the latest technologies and you have a pretty good idea of what it is to work in the future

Cons

constant reorganizations create high stress levels, also, there is a lot of red tape and double think going on so heightens the need to be politically aware.

Pros

You are working with some of the smartest, most cultured people you will ever meet. The lessons you learn from co-workers is invaluable.

Cons

They pay really smart people to do so-so jobs at an entry level. This can be frustrating and the path to more meaningful work is often ambiguous.
