GCP Severance
- GCP CE / customer engineer salary There are several other posts like this, but the OPs never came through at the end with their final numbers. Does anyone have thoughts on what an L5 CE would come in at? Is it negotiable? I hear that Google doesn't counter anyone but Meta nowadays, but that doesn't really make sense for GCP. I have

- Why so many Microsoft SDEs are jumping to Oracle? A few of my coworkers jumped to Oracle in the past several months. It makes more sense to jump to Facebook, Google, Amazon, Uber or any exciting startup. But why Oracle? If I want to continue working on Cloud infrastructure, my choices are only AWS or GCP. Oracle sounds like a career downgrade for m

- Beware of the damage of Amazon culture I personally think the Amazon engineering culture has been causing damage to the industry.
