Choosing Google Teams

Thoughts on two teams? Google Cloud Platform: Cloud Storage team, working on control plane persistence layer services. VS. Cerebra Research and Machine Intelligence team. Combine ML w Android OS to develop new smart features. Would love some perspective. From what I can tell, these both have their own tradeoffs. GCP has a lot of investment and it could be good to be in an org that is a big revenue driver. On the other hand, Cerebra is enticing, and I’d be excited to learn more about ML and its newest applications. Newer and hot field but some uncertainty as to whether it will last long term imho.

Cerebra, easy decision

Not even close. Go with Cerebra.

Lol

I would choose cerebra. Two possible reasons against: if you really don’t want to work on mobile or if you really want to work on gcp

Cerebra is new but probably going to stay around although could get reorged. I think gcp is also likely to see reorgs.
