Companies like Google often have several tiers of VP: VPs, Senior VPs, sometimes even Executive VPs, etc. It means that it's a manager very high in the hierarchy, but due to the company being big enough, there's non trivial amount of people like them among managers.
P.S. According to levels.fyi (https://www.levels.fyi/?compare=Google,Bloomberg,Amazon&track=Software%20Engineering%20Manager https://www.levels.fyi/?compare=Google,Bloomberg,Amazon&trac...) Google has only VPs and SVPs, not EVPs.
- steve1977 4y ago> It means that it's a manager very high in the hierarchy It doesn't, because there are so many of them. Looking at this for example: https://www.zippia.com/google-careers-24972/salary/vice-president/ https://www.zippia.com/google-careers-24972/salary/vice-pres... I wouldn't say VP ranks very high at Google.
- brunoTbear 4y agoAt least in PM land, director comp starts at $1M/yr, I'm sure VP comp is a multiple of that. The link you've provided is not accurate. Am Google PM.
- vfturchin 4y agoThe link is wrong. Most VPs make more than that a month.

- ricardou 4y agoThis is so wildly inaccurate. I know L3s making that much.
- I_AM_A_SMURF 4y agoThat's inaccurate. VP is a really high title, most likely your manager's manager is Sundar Pitchai or someone who reports to him. TC is in the millions of dollars for those people.
- advisedwang 4y agoGoogle does has SVPs. E.g. https://www.linkedin.com/in/urs-h%C3%B6lzle-b3168365 https://www.linkedin.com/in/urs-h%C3%B6lzle-b3168365
