Google Software Developer reviews

This is no longer a startup. You can't expect to go to Google these days and become a millionaire. As some reviewers have said, there is basically no room for advancement so it is a deadend job. They do discriminate by schools. Say if you attended Arizona State you would get paid $20k less than the same person graduating from Berkeley or Stanford. It is pretty ridiculous like that.

Project scheduling was pretty haphazard Inter-team communication was also pretty haphazard You were often working with people all over the world, which sounds fantastic at first until you spend DAYS in video conference meetings Inept, Overworked managers (70 or 80 direct reports for someone who had never managed anyone before was normal) distant, ineffective HR (NYC office had 1 HR person for 1000+ employees in the office and was not authorized to do anything except send problems to Mountain View)
