Not the place to be if you are passionate about engineering and technology
Not the place to be if you are passionate about engineering and technology
Great compensation. Nice office. Frequent onsite events.
Politics:
- No appreciation for great talent.
- Average talent in general.
- Engineers are often treated like code monkeys.
- Greedy leadership without vision.
- The company is playing catch-up to almost every competitor.
Respect the people who do the actual work. Just because it's Google doesn't mean it's invincible. Stop using so much politics, stop treating engineers like code monkeys, and pay up for real talent!
