Hey everyone, I am currently in the Google team matching process but they don't have open teams for the office I'm looking at till probably early 2023. I have been interviewing elsewhere and have gotten an offer from SAS that I need to respond to on Monday. I personally feel like I can't accept it until I hear from Google since I don't want to live with the what if. However with the way the industry has been recently idk if I should just take what I have and try again next time I'm looking for jobs. How would y’all recommend I approach this situation? 130k TC #google #tech #jobhunt
I’m in a similar position and I’m interviewing elsewhere and pursuing options at other places. Google is great (previously worked there), but I’d rather land somewhere else in the meantime as there’s no guarantee they’ll start hiring a lot again in Jan
Also in google tm. Been on it for a month and have had no meetings. Going to try to get another offer for now and switch if it makes sense.
I don't understand why did they even interview guys like you? Economy has been bad for 6 months, are recruiters blind or what?
Ask for a big signing bonus at SAS and slack off until they fire you. Then go to Google.
Do you have to pay back signing bonus if they fire?
You typically have to pay back signing bonuses immediately upon leaving within 12 months regardless of whether you quit or are fired.
Team matching could take months
Google will not hire until 2024 or possibly 2025. I am stuck for 6 months with no sign of things getting better.

PM is irrelevant role and will die in next 2-3 years.
If you really need a job, take SAS and work for few months. When Google is ready for you, jump ship to Google.
👆 I agree. Do what is best for you at the time.
