I had a company that wanted to move from AWS to GCP. This was a top-down decision that was made with an incompetent "tech lead" stating that we could move everything and save money with the 10 year commit hundred million dollar contract in Google. It failed, horrendously. Even though multiple people in the organization were calling out how bad of an idea it was they still moved forward. Google has some nicities with how things connect, setup, etc, but at the end of the day they are cloud providers and not everything they provide is a silver bullet. This project was canceled after 3 years after spending millions on migrating since the migration was not a drop-in replacement (no one thought it was except the "tech lead"). There are a lot of things besides tech that can affect these projects. If you hire AWS experts and they are having to be AWS experts expect to need to hire GCP experts.
