Yep.
Re: Google's word-of mouth reputation:
On the one hand, I feel kind of stupid bitching about my experience with Google, even though it really did happen. I don't like bitching.
On the other hand, as we hackers talk about this kind of issue at Google, maybe they'll eventually listen and shape up a bit if there really are systemic problems, and that's a win for everyone.
I actually tried giving Google "suggestions," though I don't think it made an impact (which is to be expected and understandable).
- Stormbringer 15y agoWhy would you care? Essentially when you boil it down to eesentials (ie what pays for your paycheck) Google is an advertising company with a terrible track record on human rights and privacy.
- Matt_Cutts 15y agoI think Google does listen and try to improve in response to feedback. Interviews and hiring can be especially hard, because of the number of resumes, phone screens, and interviews involved. For what it's worth, I think the interview and screening process has gotten better over the years, even if we have a ways to go. Sorry to hear about your experience though.
