Scaffolding sounds lame. I wonder how many engineers are treated this way at Google, implementing someone else's idea that is likely confined to the scope of the company. I mean, someone has to dig the trenches. "Working at Google" sounds overrated. I would hate to get employed at Google and then work on Google+ for ten years. Seriously? No one cares about Google+. You're a slave at Google, they are literally doing statistical experiments with your time. It is known, people turn down Google offers all the time to remain independent. Working for a big company doesn't give you a lot of freedom, unfortunately.
