Former Employee – worked at Google
Pros – Prestigious place to work in as an intern. Great opportunity to join a real project and actually launch your own code to millions of people around the world. Relaxed atmosphere and plenty of food.
Cons – The intern-ship programme could be a bit more organised. Also it takes ages for Google HR to react to anything esp. the recruiting process takes too long.
Advice to Senior Management – Be a bit more organised and focused. Know what you want to achieve because you have a lot of really gifted people getting upset because you suddenly change your decision about their project.
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend

Current Employee – been working at Google as an intern for less than a year
Pros – Work is very challenging, culture is fantastic. There is always something going on and it's easy to get yourself involved in anything, even if it's outside your area of expertise.
Cons – Be prepared to spend huge amounts of time teaching yourself most of what you need to know.
If you can get to know people early, this isn't so bad.
Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company
