"Team fit is the most important consideration. Google isn't homogeneous in it's benefits and treatment. For example, folks in engineering will get bigger budgets, flexibility, have a different promotion process and will be treated as first class citizens.
If you are in a non-revenue producing area, it is very different and is more traditional in it's hierarchy, bureaucracy and male dominated leadership.
Middle manager is truly one of the biggest issues at Google. Many have an inflated sense of self, have no real empathy for people unlike themselves so there is constant bias. Including racial, sexual, religion, whether or not you're a family person, disability and more. They have also weaponized HR heavily and use the "like-me" bias far too often for minorities to strive.
YMMV"
