Google has been failing continuously in user experience under his leadership:
1. Search has become an ad-riddled, clickbait SEO infested mess
2. All those naming kerfuffles (how's Allo and GSuite doing?)
3. Cloud still significantly behind AWS and Azure
4. AI stuff behind at least OpenAI and Anthropic. Applied ML stuff well behind specialized startups.
5. Pixel still not selling very well. Android still feeling like it's trying to catch up to Apple, still fragmented.
6. Layoffs everyone believed wouldn't happen until the very last second they were announced.
7. Customer support story, including toward large cloud customers, still abysmal.
Etc etc.
Yes, ad revenue increased and with it the share price, but ad revenue comes from having had a good product 5 years ago. To sustain it you need good products and good engineers to build them.
Google is trending downward. It needs a fresh CEO.
