Google may pay well and look good to future employers, but the internet is littered with stories about Google's weird promotion-driven-development culture and the stress/disappointment it can cause.
I genuinely wish GP the best but it's not a company I would want to work for if I had another option.
- hbn 4y agoIf I ended up at Google I'd probably keep my head way down, only showing up and getting the work done because everything about it seems like a toxic work environment these days. But I can't help but think it's worth leveraging an offer like that, if not only as a favor to your future self. Go in planning to work for like a year, near the end start looking for a jobs and I have a feeling there will be a ton of companies drooling at someone wanting to leave Google for them. But you do you!
- betterthanlast 4y agoAgreed. I got offered an interview at Google years ago and passed on it hard. On the one hand I feel like I should regret the money they I may have made, but honestly I regret nothing... Sometimes the fit matters more than the money and I would've hated my life there.
