Pros

Google perks: Food, connections, gym, etc.

The job is super easy. Anyone can do this job. You won't get fired unless you do something awful. And even then, you won't get fired immediately. If you understand what this job is, you can cruise and make connections to find a better job within two years.

Pay is pretty good for the work. Some people were making more than $40 an hour.

The best part about working here is the diverse set of young people. Everyone has their own passions and opinions. You meet amazing people and can build long-lasting connections.

Cons

The job is super easy. Anyone can do this job. You won't get fired unless you do something awful.

And everyone is here. There are some completely incompetent people in this department. And due to the lack of discipline from management, people can do whatever they want. People here are young but not focused.

If you are looking for a career starting point, this is not the place. Due to the relationships between TVC contractors and the rest of Waymo, you don't feel completely included in the happy, friendly nature of Google.
