Pros: Pretty good team, cool boss.

Cons: Meh hours, no work from home.

Pros: Amazing in-house infrastructure that you can learn a lot from. Very talented colleagues. Plenty of ownership over what you do (compared to companies that aggressively "follow the market").

Cons: - Becoming more and more opaque, especially upper management, openly destroying the transparent and communicative culture that used to predominate. - Lots of incentives to rush things in time for perf/promotion cycles since management mostly cares about new shiny launches. Just see how little users trust Google at this point to keep their products alive or do good customer service. - Massive company means lots of managers and arbitrary bureaucratic power. It's up to luck whether you can escape internal politics and have a good experience or get stuck in a toxic team. - Very political environment which can be really draining. - Even in Europe, American views on identity and race trump all. If you're white, it's irrelevant if you came from a poor family in a post-Soviet country; you need to check your privilege.

Pros: There are good facilities and an environment overall.

Cons: It was a huge company with a lot of bureaucracy.
