Why is Google ( or any other employer ) your holy grail? Is getting hired at a big five employer seen like the Olympics of software development or something?
I'm genuinely curious.
- throwthisawayt 10y agoGoogle is one the few employers that where if you perform well you can get to a 250k+ comp within 5 years. The pay difference between Google and most other companies is quite big after a couple years. There are obviously other options but Google is one of the few employers where you can say "well if i hit expectations I will be making 250k".
- bluGill 10y agoI know of many jobs where you can get that high. Most of them are soul sucking jobs calculating mind numbing numbers for insurance companies. Google is likely to have interesting jobs where you can get that high which would be big.
