Looking into Nest/Waymo and was wondering if the subsidiaries get the same benefits as Google. 401k, vacation, etc etc. #google #nest #waymo
Had several recruiters ping me from Nest on LinkedIn. Is working for nest the same thing as working for Google in terms of interviewing bar? Are employees free to internally move to other companies in alphabet from nest? What's the culture like at nest? Same benefits, pay, perks?
I have a Nest recruiter who reached out recently. I’m trying to figure out if I should interview or not. Is it easy to move from Nest to Google? Are the offers/benefits similar?
Nest is owned by Google and I wonder if it makes any sense to try to apply to Nest? Are benefits/salaries comparable? Would be it easier to jump into Google later?
Any SWEs at Verily, Waymo, Nest etc who can share your experiences? How is work under the Alphabet umbrella outside Google? Are the benefits and TC similar to that at Google? TC 242K

I'm worried about what this means for my chances with my other upcoming onsites, next week I'...Read more
I appear to be doing well career-wise, with a senior development position with good pay and benefits. I am definitely in a privileged position. But I am feeling completely burnt out. I have worked at this company for a long time and am tired of the politics and subject matter and the thought of goin...Read more
