What a truly arbitrary comment. This is a conversation that is clearly about Google. What possible value did you think you added with what you wrote here.

- justin66 3y agoBad example, I guess. You wrote Since when is a VP middle-level management ? in reply to the parent commenter's observation It's one thing to legitimately trash Sundar Pichai; another to name some middle-level manager like that. A VP is very much middle-level management. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corporate_title#Middle_management https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corporate_title#Middle_managem... (a quick look at a Google org chart makes it look like, well, VPs are middle management there too)
- DannyBee 3y agoI'm not sure what org chart you looked at, but VP's make up less than 0.5% of the company.
- justin66 3y agoTo be clear, since I guess we're really drilling down on this: VP denotes senior management at Google? So Hixie's blog post wasn't really dumping on a random middle manager as cmdrporcupine (an ex-Googler, I think) suggested, which was the point of all this, but rather picking on a potential C-suite executive or something?
- DannyBee 3y agoYes, VP is senior management at Google. Statistically, middle management is L6 or L7 manager. VP is at least L10. It's not quite picking on a potential c-suite executive, but it's close. She's two steps away from c-suite, in a company of >180k people.
- justin66 3y agoThanks for the context. That’s a lot of layers of management you’ve got there.
