Like:

- Simple concise syntax - Great std lib - Most of the times it's easy to do the right thing

Dislike:

- No concept of NULL values and what it means especially when dealing with JSON - Limited handling of TCP connections life-cycle

I'll add something which is not a language issue per se but I had to deal with a lot: often new devs to Go will try to force certain mental models acquired with other languages/frameworks onto Go and that makes for some terrible Go code.
