All big tech companies are approximately the same, since people job hop a lot and these places have tens of thousands of engineers, it’s basically the same people at all of them anyway. I am not sure why people have these starry eyes views of them
- mav3rick 7y agoNo it's not. Microsoft is way different from Google.
- opportune 7y agoHaving worked at both I can say it’s not that different. But I had a great team at Microsoft
- mav3rick 7y agoI had great teams at both but the bar was consistent across Google unlike Microsoft. And 9/10 engineers will accept offers at Google over Microsoft given both.
- opportune 7y agoOh I totally agree, I guess for me when I think of “work” I don’t really think too much about other people’s engineering ability. It makes a difference but less of one than most people think.
