Your work is seen by millions. Generally smart coworkers. Relative stability in the industry. Contributes a lot back to open source projects. Compensation and benefits are solid overall.

Bit of an old boys club. Way too heavy at the upper management side. Needs to be more agile and faster to market with new ideas. Somewhat of a "rest and vest" culture. Plenty of mouth breathers have snuck through the hiring process. Constantly in Google's shadow. It is at the size where people who thrive in a "meeting culture" rise up, while general hard workers are less visible. Reorgs every 6 months. Stock price is not so nice. There really isn't a need to make absolutely everything purple and yellow colored!
Jerry, either sell or let someone else lead!
