Good place, could be better
Software Engineer • Current Employee
Mountain View, California, United States
August 21, 2008
Pros: It's a great place to work as a programmer. The tasks we work on are mostly interesting and challenging, and the breadth at which your work will be applied is nearly unparalleled, certainly in the online business. The people are fun and smart.
Cons: The people are very smart.
If you're used to being a hot shot, you may not be any more.
If you're looking for the startup atmosphere, well, don't, because it's gone.
You will still have more autonomy than a lot of other companies, but you will not have complete control over the project you work on.
