Process
I received an email from Google regarding a position I applied for on their portal.
They asked me behavioral questions and some technical questions related to my tech stack.
Later, they asked me a DSA question.
It was a decent process.

Software Engineer • Current Employee
August 22, 2022
Pros: - Challenging, interesting problems
- Very capable coworkers
- Reasonable/understanding managers (in my experience, YMMV)
Cons: - Suffers from being too large.
- Coordinating work with other teams can be excruciating.
- Documentation is often lacking, and I've noticed a lot of information is more or less kept as tribal knowledge. This happens everywhere, however, so it's not unique to Google.
- Depending on your team, your feature may take months/years to roll out.
