Nice place to work
Nice place to work
A lot of opportunities/projects. Smart people. Great engineering culture. Good compensation at higher levels of the Eng ladder.
Way too many meetings.
Politics.
Difficult to work if you are in a remote office: choice of projects is limited, and many decisions are still made in Mountain View.
Bring 20% projects back.
Focus less on search.
Less useless meetings.
More power (in decision making, project choice etc.) to remote offices.
