I work at Google

I am drinking the kool aid at the moment. I want to chug that kool aid until I drown. Pay is good, stocks went up 30% since I joined, work is fantastic, teammates are smart, and manager is caring and the whole team cares for wlb. Food is free and great, free gym, 401k free money of 11k, good health insurance, AI roadmaps are promising, and free educational books, free internet phone bill, free pixel phone, good resume value, and wows from relatives, family, and social scenes.

Sorry for the kool aid post. This is my last sip I promise. Just wanted to shout out from the bottom of my lungs đŸ«

You sound like the stereotypical L3 who doesn’t realize everyone >= L4 think you make đŸ„œ

The only thing that you’re missing out is going through hardship and struggles that make you tough and help you achieve big things few decades later.

They used to give us $1000 in cash. You missed out.

If you have been in google for a long time and joy faded - just leave to another company. Chances are you will be happy to go back. On a serious note - maybe OP got lucky with the team and timing (stocks are up)

Can you refer me?

Worked at both, I like this job better. The only thing I don't have on your list is free food but with the amount of free devices I get, that makes up for it ten fold.

But nothing beats 25 hour work week

Atlassian chillmongr May 17, 2023

Is it really 25?

Meta dm1989 May 17, 2023

All good things must come to an end. That's what happened to many of us at Meta. You never know when it will come crashing down.

It was kind of clear with zuckers craziness. Before meta, facebook was my dream company. Hopefully it will come back stronger and I can switch
