Respectful Culture, Rigorous Promotions
When Google said they value their people, they actually mean it. I am encouraged to treat my team members and my peers with respect and a lot of trust. I do need to show some deference to my management, but I don't have to be a yes man.
The internal promotion process is vigorous and could be frustrating. Not a problem for me personally, but for those who want to get promoted fast, you need to put in the effort and show your impact and leadership at the next level, before you get promoted.
