    Warsaw is pretty depressing (weather wise) also most people don’t speak English . You can lead a good life working for Google in Poland because everything is super cheap.

    BTW polish women are stunning

    Having visited Poland a bunch of times I'd say Warsaw isn't exactly a lot of fun, especially as an immigrant. It's worth it if you're interested in traveling Europe for a year and moving to a city with a little more immigrant population like Zurich or the actual big cities like Berlin, London

      Can't comment on office culture, I never worked there. I used to live in Berlin and a friend of mine was Polish, we often visited his place in a small town an hour away from Warsaw.

      When I was in the city (Warsaw) by myself, I did not feel like there's a good way to get a sense of belonging, like when you fit in really well. Locals aren't particularly welcoming outside of the touristy spots. Central/eastern Europeans aren't treated with the highest respect in western Europe so once the walls break down they get that you're treated similarly and that's a way to bond too.

      You would face subtle discrimination in everyday life there, but you just need to grow a thicker skin. There's no threat for safety if that's something you're worried about.

      The city itself has a lot of history obviously, you notice signs of war and very limited pre war architecture. It's inspiring what they've overcome and the story is poetic in a way

    Google warsaw is good work, but poland pay scale is almost half that of India. There is no detail on how Google is offering annual trips to India or supporting family other than standard family health insurance. you can also roam around in eastern and western europe.

    My friend had asked Google HR to give him a couple of reference of Indians working in Poland so that he could talk to them, but couldn’t get it.
