Smart Team, Bad Infra
At face value, my salary is probably a little low, but there are a lot of random ways you can get paid here.
Rental car discounts, free food, etc.
I'm pretty happy about the all-in number.
Coworkers are very smart (probably a little too smart, in that I look less good in comparison). The approach to engineering is very positive.
The infrastructure is largely custom and it is not good (for front-end). There's no good reason why Google uses all these random front-end frameworks.
Drop Angular. Drop remote development. Drop the monorepos. Drop the custom tools that cause a janky development process.

Very dependent on behaviorals. I think Google is shying away from technicals. Know what and why of your resume. The interview process was lengthy and required a lot of preparation. I'd suggest using some tools to prepare behaviorals as well.
