Google Technical Solution Engineer reviews

- Big company. Which means the company culture is rather diluted in day to day experience. What really matters is the team, organization, manager and role that you sign up for - Tough to make an impact as there are plenty of smart people around. This means the ones who are well entrenched in the system tend to perform better. As a new comer, don't expect immediate success - Imposter syndrome is a real thing. But you need to remember that this is a well oiled machine and will function very well without any single individual. This includes even the CEO - Pichai. Yes, Google will run very well without him. - Expect to be low balled in terms of salary/designation. Google has plenty of applicants. And they can always find a better person for the role at a cheaper price given enough time. So be ready to eat humble pie and join on the company's terms.

- Poor management - Promotion focused peers - Not competitive compensation - It's hard to make a difference - You can find the best job for you and be very happy with it or you can end up in something that won't satisfy you at all. I'd strongly suggest to be very critical about all the information you get about the team (at the end of the day they are at marketing)
