Overall, a great environment, albeit slow to change
Opportunity to work with talented and smart individuals, and work on a product that has many users.
Lots of communities within Google, easy to meet people like yourselves outside of your team and cross-pollinate ideas.
Depending on your org, it can get highly political and bureaucratic. Feedback loops are slow and unhelpful (performance reviews happen once or twice a year and aren't actionable).
Encourage more real-time feedback between peers and up and down the reporting chain.

The interview process was clear and easy. I was able to clear the interview quickly. It was a three-stage interview with a panel of five people. One of the panel members was so impressed, they hired me on the spot.

Scheduling the Google CoderPad interview was smooth. The interview itself was challenging yet stimulating. I was told that I was rejected due to the position being closed out, which was pretty weird.

It was a very long and strenuous interview. Nobody wanted to be here. The manager was not it.
