Given what we know about longer hours and productivity, plus Google’s low retention figures, I’m going to go with the latter.

- arebop 5y agoWhat do we know about Google's retention figures?
- steelframe 5y agoI'd like to know that too. Anecdotally, in the past 6 months 7 people I've previously worked with on projects at Google left after having been there about 10 years.
- ghaff 5y agoI don't know how good the data out there is but the meme seems to be that people are moving around a lot right now. Certainly I've seen a disproportionate number of long term employees I know deciding to either retire or switch jobs.

- ashtonkem 5y agoCan’t speak post Covid, but last time I checked they weren’t terribly impressive. IIRC the median was 1.1 years. Facebook usually tops the FAANG charts for retention, but the numbers still aren’t great.
