Google companies in the eyes of Google employees

I 've been there for five years, and you can see the good side of Google anywhere, so I'll compare the Other Side of Google with other software companies.

A common problem is that you are easily spoiled by various allowances. Some offices have developed their unique rights culture, and these people will complain about the quality of free brownie candy, these spoiled children will make you feel very embarrassed.

The problem for engineers is that the support for operations is too heavy-Yes, many people work to ensure the normal operation of the system. Engineers are not used to being on standby. Developers who focus on development need adequate sleep to be more energetic, but doing so will result in less contact with the data center, even for their customers. This needs to be balanced. Google is aware of this issue and is stimulating them through incentives.

In the end, this company is so lucky. I mean, with so many employees, everyone can get a return even with a little effort.

The Personnel Management Department is the most terrible. A manager usually has 50 to people. Even if they only spend 30 minutes reporting each week, two weeks of one-on-one reporting is required each month. The result is that managers cannot make technical decisions, and they do not have much say in Performance Testing (this is a matter of the Committee), or even decide who to hire (this is also a matter of the Committee ).

I once asked the old employee what managers do here? They said, "I don't know ". Almost all of the managers I have seen are not the best in decision making. The only thing that can be explained is that they are limited by internal rights struggles. The good thing is that they will not intervene in the company's daily operations, but if you like to be a technical manager, Google is obviously not suitable for you.
