Datadog or Google internship?

I had 2 internship offers last summer, Datadog in NYC and Google in Waterloo, Canada. I ended up choosing Datadog mainly because of its location. I had a super fun summer and have successfully secured a return offer as well. So, I wanted to ask here, did I make the right decision? It still makes me wonder after a whole year... Should I have gone to Google? Did I screw it up or is the FAANG hype over? #engineering #software #swe #internship

Google has been doing multiple rounds of layoffs. Companies don't do layoffs when things are going great. Let alone multiple rounds. Just sayin.
