I mean, after reading all those "google is great" love-posts, you read one that points out flaws, and all of the sudden that's the one to read? All the others go out the window? How does that work?

All the others are repetitions of the same positive points. This is one of the first one to list many negative points. This is an awesome reality check for anyone considering to apply at Google: they are just like any other large company, in that you need to be weary of managers, because their goals often don't coincide with yours.
