I have a referral in Google and I am really confused where I should apply. The openings are in Canada and Munich only for SWE(L3). Wanted to know which location(Google Canada/ Google Munich) would be better in terms of work and comp. Google Zurich is an option but they have no openings for SWE Backened right now. #Google #Munich #Canada #Software #Engineer
Engineering in Canada is in a far less interesting town (Kitchener-Waterloo). I know this wasn't mentioned, but you should really think about the the living environment as well
I do not care much about city life cz I am kinda introvert. As far as work and pay is good and there are opportunities in the city, I am good to go
Could you please give more details on the living environment?
Pay is higher in Canada, bcs of Germany’s insane taxes. That said, both countries have many upsides and Google offices are amazing in both Munich (growing rapidly) and all over Canada.
Yes, Germany has insane tax brackets. But I have heard that Google has very less head count in Canada. Also Canada has less opportunities as compared to Munich (Correct me if I am wrong). Any thoughts on work front in both cities. Also, how much difference in pay these cities have. Is it substantial?
