My general feeling regarding any company is work closest to the source of revenue. This way, your performance will be attached to what drives the business performance.
- pmart123 7y agoThe corollary to this is working in the area that the company appreciates the most. So, for Apple, it might be design, for Google, software engineering, for Salesforce, being on the sales side.
- m0zg 7y agoDon't know how it is now, but this would be a bad idea at Google specifically when Larry was in charge. Back then you'd need to work on something he cared about to have the best career trajectory. To give an example: Larry never particularly seemed to care about Cloud, Ads or Technical Infrastructure (TI). He did seem to care a lot about Google+, at least until it became obvious that it's not going anywhere, Android, and "moonshot" projects like Waymo (nee Chauffeur).
