I don't know. Google has tens of thousands of developers hard at work apply advanced algorithms to everything. I mean, why else would they hire the way they do if that's not the case?
- potta_coffee 7y agoGoogle is a pretty unique company. Most programmers don't work at Google or at a place like Google.
- scarface74 7y agoIf Google got rid of all their engineers that weren’t working on search and ads would it really make a difference since 85% of their revenue still comes from ads?
- wutbrodo 7y agoI can't tell if you're being sarcastic, but since people seem to be taking your comment as sincere: Google doesn't have people applying advanced algorithms to everything. It's a common complaint (or at least observation) among new hires that Google likes to hire top CS students and put them to work doing fairly basic engineering work. Though the flipside is that they make lateral transfers very easy, so those that are the most motivated by more challenging or even just more CS-oriented work find themselves drifting towards it.
