Great Culture, Bureaucracy Hinders
Great Culture, Bureaucracy Hinders
Strong engineering culture.
It's hard to be completely miserable at Google.
There is substantial diversity in terms of the type of work and opportunities to learn.
Bureaucracy is probably the number one complaint I hear from former employees. Former employees complain about the number of people that must now be consulted to get anything done.

Very long process. Prep is time-consuming: LeetCoding and Grokking the System Design Interview. Past experience is not valued much beyond the leadership part of the interview. Most interviewers were nice. I liked the team-matching part. Low offe
