Pros

Food.

You get to meet talented individuals.

People are helpful when you ask for work-related issues.

Cons
  • No meaningful work, at least in many teams in India.
  • So much randomness. No documentation and no proper code structuring. It's just a bunch of super-talented individual contributors fighting to prove their impact. No sense of teamwork.
  • Too many hierarchies and slow promotions. Really hard to show impact with experimental projects happening all the time.
  • Internal tech stack and hard-to-explore opportunities outside Google.
Advice to Management
  • Focus more on how we can work as a team and not as individual contributors only.
  • Focus on internal documentation.
