Does Google NYC offer daycare?
Or any other childcare perk? I’m heading into grad school to pivot into big tech, and I’m planning with my wife on which companies and cities we would consider. The cost of childcare is a large chunk of our projected financial plan. It would be great to get a sense if there are employee perks to help offset costs, specifically for the Manhattan office.
That would be very interesting if they do. I heard some onsite subsidized one from many companies though.
I’m new here....so is this a troll??? 1. No idea when is OP going to gradute and kid(s) will grow up by then, so the daycare need will vary 2. Of all the the things this is a real worry? The childcare costs? Chances are you’re both working so with even with only one of you working @google you should be able to take care of daycare needs. 3. Hats off to the confidence that (may) reject(s) google if they dont have a daycare 😬😁
Where do we start since it’s seems that you are being purposefully obtuse. 1. This information is irrelevant to my question of if Google offers a specific work perk currently. Like you seriously don’t need to know my current family size (2), hypothetical children age (non-existent), or my shoe size (11.5) to answer “Does X company offer Y perk?” 2. Not properly planning for your family is an avoidable mistake. If there are relevant perks that cut down on monthly costs, I can either choose to add more to my investment plan or increase my budget for rent/mortgage. Monthly childcare for infants in Manhattan can easily cost 2,500-3,000. 3. I mean it’s a company. I turned down Google before for another opportunity and Google turned down me before. It doesn’t take much confidence to know your worth and skill set.
1. Yeah you came all the way to blind looking only the relevant info and you detest everything else. And dont overreact....i dont need to know anything about you....my questions are food for your own thought. College is a long time and things change. 2. Sure you’ve skipped google in the past and you will skip is again because someone else paid for childcare.....you for sure ignored the point i was trying to make so here....taste your own medicine. 3. I meant its not just a company....its freaking google and your claims of rejecting it in the past have no bearing because you still care about it....DEARLY
How does Day care work at google? Does everyone gets it ?? Is it free?? I'm
If you had an offer from Google in the past, why pay for grad school? If you didn't, how are you so confident you'll get one after grad school?
I have a generous merit scholarship at arguably the top grad school and I’m excited to study new content. Also I have two strong working relationship with recruiters, my Google network is pretty strong but really heavy on SF and Mountain View, and my grad school is known to send alumni there. But Google is really one of many company I’m considering. I just wanted to know if they offered a specific perk. If you are flexible in your desired role, you can land a Google job without any huge problems (assuming you are an above average employee). Google is great but depending on my circumstances and growth potential I may want to choose a role at Bloomberg instead (since they are also on my list of companies that I would consider).
Networking will only take you so far since you'll also need to pass the interviews, and your network has no bearing on that. Your network can help you get an interview, but not an offer. If you're a software engineer, studying LeetCode problems is far more effective preparation than grad school. A grad degree will only give you an advantage as SWE in Google's interview process (or that of most top tech companies) if you're advancing research in a current "hot" field (e.g. computer vision or ML). Otherwise, you should be under no illusions that it makes no difference and should be pursued only for enjoyment. Unless publishing cutting edge research in one of said fields, you'll still need to study LeetCode problems to clear the software engineer hiring bar once completing your degree.
Google Mountain View offers onsite child care but there's a wait list and it's not "cheap". Generally speaking, with a job at Google your TC should allow you to cover child care.
