A decent place, but not as exciting as you might think
Great people, flexible hours/location, decent work-life balance. Good amenities in the office.
Bureaucracy blocks you from implementing things fast, hence it also blocks your skill growth. Recent layoffs (or rather how they are done) show Google is no longer a #1 employer, but one of a top 10% at most.
Reduce bureaucracy, improve communication with employees, by stopping the pretense of being a "good" company.

Very good interview process. The interviewer was on time, and basic programming questions were asked. The main topic was on algorithms and Python programming skills. I was asked to solve BFS and DFS, and also binary search.
Software Engineer
Phone screen followed by three more technical rounds and one behavioural round. The entire process lasted about two months. The interviews were 45-60 minutes long and sometimes could get rearranged last minute. Overall, the process was okay.
