- Still a good company on paper with competitive comp, great benefits, and well positioned in the current shift to AI-focused technologies - Still has a lot of great people that are both incredibly talented and kind
The current climate of economic scarcity and aggressive shifts to AI is forcing Google to make some hard choices. I don't think it's that Google has fundamentally changed, but that it's shifted from a "peace time" state to a "war time" mentality. The problem with this shift is that those who thrive in war time mindsets are gaining influence and are likely to impact long term culture. There are still a lot of wonderful and resilient leaders in Google who are fighting for the culture, but they're burning out as business demands continue to mount.

A lot of Microsofties say "Google is done. That is what you get for not innovating" "Microsoft has the best AI" "I would rather work for Microsoft than Meta or Google" They did literally nothing in AI. If they had fired all AI researchers and kept partnership with OpenAI, today would be the same. I...Read more
