"Great place to work with a lot of perks. Low compensation since everyone wants to work there. Google has the ability to pay low because they can. Free food! They have so many perks that they don't want you to ever leave. Lots of positions available though very hard to get in. Overall, I would recommend this company."

Communications Manager

"I've been on my third assignment at Google through a staffing agency and I have to say, it is one of the best jobs I've had. With the many resources provided, I am able to work successfully on multiple projects simultaneously from inception to completion. I have the freedom to be a creative problem-solver, with the ability to think, plan and execute multiple projects autonomously. The culture at Google is friendly, approachable, resourceful, and intelligent."

Android Developers Apprentice

"I was awarded an apprentice at Google via North Seattle College while pursuing an Associate's Degree. The free hoodies, gym membership and transit to and from the office were enough to interest anyone but my favorite perk was the free lunch. I was broke and in college at the time so a free meal was very appreciated."

Android Software Engineer

"Contracting at Google has been an extraordinary experience. Despite the tightening up of documentation and tools making access for contractors more difficult, the work environment and culture is exciting. I learned so much by being part of a team that accomplished an amazing amount of top-quality work. Their processes are well defined and documented, and team spirit, pride, helpfulness, and support to a common goal are clearly evident. I would go back if the opportunity ever arises."

"Google is a hub of most smart engineers. I am fortunate enough to work with them although it is a contracting job. I have limitations with my contracting title. But I learned a lot as I work for a huge project with 50 to 70 member team. Every project is like a startup. The opportunities are on the table. We have to evolve with the team as the environment is so encouraging that you cannot be stagnant at one point."
