Google Innovation
- Is Google still innovating in 2022? I feel a decrease in the number of innovations in Google compared to 2012-2016.

- Google may actually have a future now When the dead weight is PIPed out it may actually become a innovative company again. Too many losers there right now who got lucky on interview and just coasting.

- Which big tech companies truly grant time to work on side projects? Talking about e.g. the „20% Project“ from Google. A dedicated budget of 10-20% per week to spend on pet projects, either personal, for education or product innovation. Does Google still offer this across the board in 2022? Do others, like Atlassian?
