Pros

Perks are good.

Ambitious projects.

Work-life balance.

Good software flows and internal Google infrastructure to support silicon flows.

Cons

There is a toxic culture. The company is still in the nascent stages of Silicon Flow. The PIP creates an unnecessary work-showoff culture.

Advice to Management

There was too much assessment on CLs, code line deltas, and the use of AI rather than real issue impacts and findings.
