Pros

A lot of opportunities/projects. Smart people. Great engineering culture. Good compensation at higher levels of the Eng ladder.

Cons

Way too many meetings.

Politics.

Difficult to work if you are in a remote office: choice of projects is limited, and many decisions are still made in Mountain View.

Advice to Management

Bring 20% projects back.

Focus less on search.

Less useless meetings.

More power (in decision making, project choice etc.) to remote offices.
