Pros: I have never met so many brilliant people at one company ever. I have worked for 8 years in industry now. Seriously, there is not a single dumb employee. -- Perks Google is the best company I have worked for as far as perks are concerned. Name a perk and Google will beat its rival. * Food? * Massage? * Shuttle service? * Nap room? * Doctor? * Offsites? * Beer on campus? What else?

Cons: If you join as a Noogler, you will enjoy the perks: free food, massage, infinite offsites, inter-grouplets, events, socials, meeting brilliant people, and all that. But the moment you start thinking of promotion or career role change, you will start observing this: * Extreme preference is given for manager feedback during performance review cycles. Some managers have no clue about the products they are managing. In such cases, employees who are more vocal and are manager suck-ups get preferential treatment during the review cycles. But engineers who make more contributions, are recognized by peers, but who are not in the “good books” of their direct management or a level above, get penalized. Google should fix this, and fix it NOW, before it continues scaling rapidly, thereby scaling this problem with it. So many of its managers are managers just because they happened to be there when Google was a 500-person company. * You will also observe that there is very little or no chance of career path advancement. This is different from a start-up. If you are ambitious and you haven’t discovered what your technical passions are, the best advice is to not join Google. Google makes staying and getting stuck in your job very easy. All those perks are hard to leave behind. There is a fat possibility that you are stuck doing a tiny project that has no impact, no direction, and you keep working hard day after day just to realize that the project is doomed to be deleted or has no future. Your best bet is to get working on projects such as infrastructure, search, or ads. * You have to be in the driver’s seat when it comes to changing projects. This used to be easier in the early days. Now managers decide your fate. A manager can essentially lock you down for 18 months before “releasing” you to a different project. Google should never take its employee morale for granted, yes, even if it is the most sought-after company. There are many brilliant engineers leaving Google, and these are also people with a lot of unvested options. Stock isn’t a carrot anymore.

Pros: Best performance in company. Amazing campus.

Cons: New coding every time. New challenge every time.

Pros: Food is amazing. Lots of cafes. Amazing coworkers. Work-life balance. Salary is decent. Also, I have added 5 words, but it's still showing an error.

Cons: Slow promo Politics Write lot of design docs for even small work.
