How is Verily for SWE? Is it comparable to Google or other big companies in terms of pay and perks? How is WLB? Worth interviewing? Googlers, what are your thoughts on Verily?

    Pay and perks are the same as Google. Stock has done much better recently, but it's not as liquid as GOOG. WLB depends on team, but it's been great for me. SSF office is nice, but a long commute from South Bay.

      Refresh amounts should be same as Google, with all the same caveats (subject to your performance and manager / director discretion).

      Liquidity is supposed to be twice yearly, but the timing has been a little uneven. $$ has been worth it so far (a fair bit better than GOOG growth). But past performance doesn't indicate future results, blah blah blah blah blah.

      I did a phone screen with both Verily and Google, and my Verily question was much harder.

  • How hard is it to transfer from Verily to Google? Also if someone moves from Verily to Google, will the Verily stock vesting cycle still continue?

    Hiring bar should be the same; might have been luck of the draw with the phone interview. We pull from the same pool of questions for general SWE, but maybe with a slight healthcare bent.

    Maternity/paternity leave at Verily is similar to Google, slightly worse. However, leave and other benefits are eroding over time at Verily, so maternity/paternity leave could get shorter.
