Haven't heard even one case of Principal at Walmart getting a staff offer at Google.
There are a few :-) and the there are many who aren’t
Yeah you are right. In terms of the technical skills, Principal will be senior at most.
The leveling is about TC not skills. If you don't care about the Google tag, Walmart would be better.
I think first one is more accurate
