I am a Mandiant employee in East coast and hopefully I will be part of Google once acquisition is completed.

Probably I will be working from Reston office. As Google prefers employees to work 3 days a week, I am considering Reston office as it's nearest office for me.. The commute will be still high like 2hr one way.

I have few questions on this. Can someone help out on these questions..

1. for similar grade level, how different are the salaries on east coast vs west coast.
2. any insights on Reston office? how is the office workspace and teams?
3. last I heard that Google Reston teams are consisting more employees from sales, marketing and networking teams. is this really makes sense to be in Reston office if you are in software engineering teams?
4. Google is known for its multi cuisine lunch and food. do we have similar availability in all offices or it's only applicable to HQ.
5 if relocation, what are the other Google locations I should consider other than HQ.

    1. Salaries are based on your job ladder, and will depend on terms of acquisition.
    2. You will be given options as part of the acquisition terms.
    3. You are correct in your assessment, but it's up to personal preference.
    4. They try to do this in all offices. But obviously it's based on critical mass to determine how much cuisine they serve.
    5. Are you going to continue working on mandiant? Or will you go work in a different team? Google doesn't usually allow singletons in random offices. I.e. either you have a team there, or you probably wfh.

      OP
      right now I am remote with Mandiant. not sure if it's going to continue with Google.

      if I have to relocate near to Reston office, I will keep my options open for other locations as well so I would like to have some understanding
