[For Google X] Your experience is highly dependent on your team
Great food and snacks.
Easy commute access, being right next to the Caltrain.
X Labs is not very diverse unless you count Asian and Indian. It felt like most females were not on the engineering side. I was a contractor, so I can't speak to benefits. Your experience is highly dependent on your team, and projects can come and go very quickly. It is very difficult to move from a contract to a full-time position. Also, the parking problem is terrible.

Google Interview Experiences
Software Engineer
First, an online assessment, then the HR call, then several rounds of technical interview (you need to solve data structure/algorithm problems), and finally a manager interview (mostly behavioral questions).
Software Engineer (Internship)
I had two online interviews with their software engineer. They first asked me about my research at school, and then we started the coding question part. The difficulty of the problems is around medium to hard on LeetCode.
Hardware Engineer
I was invited to have an interview with two engineers for the Google Watch team. I had two rounds in one day, 30 minutes apart. Each round took 60 minutes to complete. They didn't tell me the result for two months, and no feedback was provided.
