Pros

Google campus and perks, you MAY get to work with talented people, free gourmet food, a line in your CV

Cons

The people. Lack of soft skills. Unprofessional gossip and judgement about everyone's achievements and if other people are getting more perks than you, like they decide if you deserve to be there. Coworkers that will step on your back to get ahead and blame you for their own faults. Information hoarding. Some team leaders that compete with employees under them instead of empowering them. It felt like the processes of a startup with the extra beaurecracy and rules of a corporation. No path to convert to FTE. Your success depends on your manager, how much they care about your success vs. their own and if they like you personally. You should hope you don't have any HR problem. While I'm glad for the opportunity and don't regret the experience, you could say some people went out of their way to ruin it for me. Their attitude and behavior overshadowed all the good, effectively spoiling it. It was a disappointing experience and I had high hopes. This review is my opinion and should not be taken as a fact.
