Asians - what are your thoughts on asian female white male ?
What is the role at GCP that is equivalent to an L6 Solutions Architect at AWS if someone were interested in making a switch?
For God's sake- don't switch. You will poke your eyes out at Google Cloud of you're used to working with competent peers. It's like going back 5-8 years. So many things you take for granted at AWS; and when supporting GCP- you gotta wait 'cause they got a person 'on it'- but that person has zero experience (but they're Googley intelligent!!); So come back in a few years... In the meantime- wtf do you tell customers about all the obvious/expected questions they have? Lol- good luck finding things to share. I pity customer facing positions when you can't share a damn thing that isn't already public. You gotta have EVERYTHING cleared by lawyers. If not- it's Need To Know/confidential (even if not explicitly marked). So... Yeah. Not always the most fun to stand in front of customers and be forced to look like an idiot; because you literally can't give an answer that is legit. If you share anything that's not cleared- if your mgr or anyone decides to mess with you& report you, it's grounds for termination. So, joy. This is what happens when a lawyer-crazy company decided to make an 'instant' Enterprise sales force. Much gnashing of teeth by anyone that knows how to do the job. Which is why.... Only amateurs or desperate folks stay at GCP
That is helpful. But the money?
Money is not good at all. Google thinks anyone can do customer facing roles. You have to really hold out to get even your current pay. I never saw so many unhappy folks as those that did negotiate the same comp - ie, got bought out to join. At least I was lowballed, so had nothing to loose when I figured it out and escaped.
Op have you pulled it ?
Sales Engineer is the title. In terms of levels, check levels.fyi
