Does Google give employees iPhones like FB does ?

Leaving FB for Google soon. I need to return my office phone. Don’t have a personal phone, don’t think it’s worth buying if Google will give me a phone.

If they do, they’ll probably give pixel.

About a month before you join, you’ll get an email asking you to pick a phone of choice, a laptop of choice and your mail id. It won’t be a personal phone though.

I can transfer my personal number to that phone. The main problem with having 2 personal phone is that I will have to carry 2 phones

Yes. Pixel 3 or iPhone 8. It usually needs manager approval, but in most orgs it is a simple formality.

Why not iPhone 10 ?

Google crossing 100K employees mark. Frugality is important before running out of money.

Most orgs don't allow a corp phone unless there is a strong business reason (e.g. oncall) so the answer in general is no.
