Pros

I like Google for it's transparent culture, free food and other perks (well, but those are baked in the total compensation package anyway).

Cons

Relatively flat org means there are few chances for one to advance. It is not uncommon to have a senior manager with 40+ directs. There are lots of smart people. In a way, it is a good thing. The downside is that a lot of them want to play safe, which hampers innovation.
