      weak management, no respect for contractors

      Qa tester
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      obvious perks like food, gym, celebrity visits/talks, laundry, dogs on campus, etc

      Cons

      the managers from my experience did not know how to manage. they seemed like former engineers that were just given the title. No leadership, guidance, or followup throughout my year there. Also when it came time to convert me to full time, management failed and "forgot" to submit my application. Contractors overall seemed pretty unhappy even with all the awesome company perks. It just seemed like there was just some lack of respect for us.

      Good place to start

      Business development manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Google is a good place to start work. There are many Opportunities to develop your skills, especially in the selling department.

      Cons

      Sometimes the management loses focus about the priorities and puts the wrong people forward for the wrong jobs. Having cool star trek names is not the only thing which makes a work place 'tick'

      Good company and perqs; work itself is often lacking in substance and satisfaction

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      * World-class, brilliant coworkers * Excellent benefits and physical environment * Above-average total compensation compared to other local companies * Some groups do very cutting-edge work

      Cons

      * Much of the work is not interesting * Mid-level executive leadership is questionable * "Death march" schedules and random priority changes becoming more common * No career path from engineer to having substantive influence over what gets worked on * Too many overqualified people forced into work that's beneath their abilities
