The best company I've ever worked for!
The best company I've ever worked for!
Challenging work environment, you get to learn a lot, especially in the beginning. Huge scale of the projects, incredibly smart people, cool office space, perks (stock options and bonuses), and healthy and yummy food. Variety of domains and products; you can always find something for yourself if you decide to change the project.
Difficult to get a promotion (you may get frustrated after a while).
Often have to work late.
Working from home is rarely an option.
Not so many career opportunities outside Mountain View.
The most interesting projects are focused there.
Reward long-term and experienced employees.
