Pros

Google pays extremely well and takes care of its employees (well, interns) and will make sure you are in an environment to succeed. Benefits are great as well.

Cons

It can be a fast-paced company at times. The team I was part of was somewhat full of engineers who unrealistically expected an intern to complete research with no prior experience.

Deadlines were very strict, code reviews were slow and nitpicky, and working extended hours/weekends was strongly encouraged by management.
