Good work-life balance, competitive pay but not the highest
Free food, good benefits, good work-life balance, and most managers genuinely care for your growth.
Recently, the layoffs have left a bad mark on how Googlers think of leadership. The promotion/performance review process changed recently, where 70%+ of the company receives the same rating, with minor discretions within this rating. Compensation is to the point that it gives low incentive to work hard.
Care more about the company's workers, as opposed to appeasing shareholders.
