Pros

There was good compensation and still many excellent people, most from a time when it was a cool company.

Cons

Google is an umbrella for independent corp organizations. Not much is left of the engineering-driven culture of the old times. Whether it is still a good experience depends on the particular org one is in.

Advice to Management

It is your job to create an environment of stability and sustainability so engineers can focus on work.
