Pros

Google offers free healthy food, onsite gyms, personal trainers, limited onsite health care, and free buses to and from work. They also help work-life balance by providing Wi-Fi on the buses so that work can be done while commuting. This means less time spent at the office.

Cons

If a person is hired on at a junior level, HR expects that person to earn promotions until they attain a senior level. Google management winnows out those who don't earn a senior level within a certain amount of time. That said, Google management does not require anyone starting out at a senior level to earn promotions.
