To you and me, that's a lot of money, for Google's size that's really not a lot of money. The fact that it just became profitable certainly helps the beancounters decide to keep it around though.
- cflewis 3y agoBeing in Silicon Valley has warped my sense of money so much. When I read $300m, what I read is "when you factor in office costs & health care as well as salary/stock grants, an average FAANG software engineer must be ~$1m. That's only 300 employees!" It's a crazy way to think. Suddenly all prices that end with `m` and not `b` seem pointless.
