I think this is really common. I've met quite a few Google engineers whose whole identity is defined by their employer. Its striking, and a testament to the malleability of the human mind, even if the individual is "smart".
- disgruntledphd2 6y agoThe joke that I always used to have when I worked near their Dublin office was How do you know someone is a Googler? Don't worry, they'll tell you :) This was prompted by me noticing that most of the people who still had their badges visible after work appeared to have Google badges.
- rgblambda 6y agoFrom a brief look at job openings at Google Dublin, this mentality would be particularly mind boggling as it looks like the Dublin office houses the support staff (not that there's anything wrong with working support).
- disgruntledphd2 6y agoSo, in general, Dublin Big Tech jobs are in: - customer support - sales - finance (explains itself really) - SRE (mostly because of favourable time zones) Most of the core engineering is in London/Zurich. Dunno what's gonna happen post Brexit, but anecdotally, the FAANG which I am most familiar with has had real problems hiring in London post-2016.
