You've got to hand it to Google: They have vision.

  They have powerful nerds with money combined with constant internal reorgs due to backstabbing politics. "stepped down" is the corporate version of political "to spend more time with his family." "You don't want me here? Fine! I'll go make my own org with my own cost center and blackjack and subordinates to sleep with. In fact, forget the new org."

    Is the internal culture at Google really that toxic? I'd expect the usual backstabbing and empire building to take a back seat to Getting Shit Done® at there of all places.

      backstabbing and empire building It's inevitable after an organization reaches a certain size.

  Don't mistake money + engineers for vision!

    You're saying they're no different than Oracle?

      Oh god, I'm no Google fan, but I'll never love Oracle. Google is leagues ahead of Oracle in almost every way possible.

      How are they different? They both do shitty things.

        Who doesn't?

    At this point I'm willing to see Google for more than the sum of their parts.
