Nice company; less exciting product
Nice company; less exciting product

Performance reviews will replace some people every year, this is for sure, especially for the Mountain View branch. I heard about several cases where a manager has finally "walked out" people from the workplace. So, please keep on checking in your code changelist, keep on raising your voice in email threads.

Try more interesting products. Try more challenging ideas.
