Asians - what are your thoughts on asian female white male ?
I joined about a month and a half ago on a mature GCP service offering. I don't have any CRs in yet, just did my GTI onboarding stuff. I am scavenging for some small work items and bugs to ramp up but the TL keeps telling me to take it slow. If this were Amazon I would have fallen into the support/pip radar. How should I approach this? The codebase is massive and I seem lost. People generally have a laid back attitude here and I am expected to audit moma (internal portal) to find out answers myself. Any folks who recently joined Google? How long did it take for you to be productive? Did you have to find work for yourself? The only other place I have worked at is Amazon so I don't know how all this works out when you switch to a new place. TC: 320k
Ah my brother in self imposed stress
Did they give you a starter bug / starter project??
Nothing yet but I am asking for it
If they didn’t give you anything just vibe for a bit. It’s normal
It's normal. Don't worry about it. Nobody expects you to be productive for the first couple of months.
This is how microsoft is as well, except replace "first couple of months" with "entire tenure"
7 months Noogler here. Take the first few months slow. Read documentations a lot, especially regarding designs of the system you will be working with
How long did it take for you to start contributing to the team's codebase?
Took me 4 months including gti. Now I am taking on a couple major work. I still dont know shit so I ask a lot, even people outside of the team
It’s normal you’ll be fine
Dude you are an Amazonian. If anyone can do it, it’s you > If this were Amazon I would have fallen into the support/pip radar. Even at Amazon I’d be shocked if someone were pipped within a month
If I wouldn't have checked in code a month and a half in it would've certainly raised eyebrows at Amazon. No kidding there
Can confirm this about Amazon. We had someone start last year who didn’t commit anything in the first two months. Manager asked me if I thought he didn’t meet the bar. I was surprised and told my manager that our team didn’t do a good job of assigning tasks in the first place.
Omg this sounds so refreshing
