Most of the jobs here are in customer support, and people get very sick of it. Engineers do decent work, but the rest is boring and grinding.

Salary is WAY below market, and stock options are pretty week. Since the stock price is so high, each person gets about 10 stock options per year (and that's not free stock, just the right to buy a stock at the price during the time!)

Growth here isn't that great, since customer service jobs don't get promoted much. Also, kids who are a few years out of college often become your superiors, regardless of how many years of experience you have.

If you are talking about the business side of things, Google is really not as glorious as it sounds. People are super competitive with each other and will trip you if you are very successful. Most people who take advantage of all the perks are frowned upon, so they're not as good as it sounds from the outside.
