I have been offer a position as a Partner Engineer for GCP or a position as Customer Engineer (aka sales engineer) at Apigee (sub service of GCP) I was wondering if anyone knew what teams at Apigee looked like. I know I like GCP position but would like to hear some thoughts. Any insights about Apigee teams? Apigee position would be for Europe whereas GCP would be for Canada. (I like europe much more than Canada, of course). TC: none
Oof. Sounds like you need money my fellow ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Fellow ¯\_(ツ)_/¯! I was wondering who took that username lmao
And now you’re no longer wondering who took it? Now that you know ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ took it?
Apigee.
GCP
GCP. Apigee is still not fully integrated and they are a bit further from Google than Google Cloud. At least in GCP, you would not be locked with one product.
That could be a benefit. Gcp is so big it is hard to focus on one tech as aPartner engineer. At least with apogee you can specialize and then choose the pieces of GCP to learn/integrate with. Also may have more upward mobility as you specialize and it grows. Of course there is always chance you get reorged back into gcp once integrated. Either way - I would go apogee
Hey guys. I’m trying to revive this old thread. I’m currently considering joining the apigee team as a Sales Engineer (Customer Engineer). Any feedback on how the product is doing? Thanks!
The product is a dumpster fire, lot of escalations and their new “solution” is soooooooo hacky. And a lot of Googlers just left so it is mostly the original Apigee people, the people they hired in, with Oracle bosses who are all friends
u the real mvp
I’m out of here soon as we do promo
So if your TC is “none” you’re working for free?
Or not working 😉
