Which of the big tech is the best if I want to work on new innovation as an engineer?
Actually the companies are so big that you really need to be lucky to find a team doing really innovative work (which is different from what recruiters and managers say).
This is definitely NOT true at AWS, and multiple other places at Amazon. You can say whatever you want about WLB (and some times it may even be true) - but Amazon has unparalleled growth opportunities and places to innovate.
I was at our annual machine learning conference. The number of teams using innovative ML approaches to solve real world problems is incredible! I came away truly inspired.
Lol - if you are innovative you can do it anywhere - if you expect the company to help then you are mediocre blood sucking leetch- who cares only about yourself.
Fact.
This is so not true. We are not talking about solving regular problems in a creative and innovative way using existing tech, OP is implying actual innovation like coming up with a newest coolest ML/AI framework or orchestration framework or containerization tech that the industry has never seen before. Your time at the company is owned by the company, the company needs to support you spending a year or whatever to create and innovate something. Sometimes they might not want that.
Lol how does a social network with a shit VR side project have 7 deluded employees? Top 3 is accurate
Google? What new stuff other than google cloud AI have they done in last 5 years
Facebook is cutting edge plumbing. I don’t consider FB innovative at all, though I work here. I consider Google, Amazon, Microsoft in that order more innovative that us.
The crazy teams and stress definitely exist in many parts of Amazon, but Amazon has the scale and ambition to try most anything and pump money into something once it catches.
You could have also asked 'which company are you working for?' and get same results.
Microsoft employees outnumber the next biggest employer on here (amazon) about 3 to 1 and yet the statistics show a 20 to 1 ratio in the opposite direction when accounting for number of employees on blind.
Salesforce?
Truly cutting-edge CRM tech 😂
