Ask HN: Is working for Google still worth it?

1 points by radiosnob 6y ago ↗ HN

For the past 12 months, Google has been courting me into joining. As an oldie (35+), I always thought of working for Google was an achievement. A company that makes very cool products for an extremely large audience.

The last few years the shine has come off the company, but you can't deny that one would be working on problems you wouldn't see anywhere else.

Google reaching out with a SRE Manager position. From what I understand, this is working on the core products. Is working for Google still worth the experience?

Something to keep in mind, right now I am working as an Engineering Director. I report directly to the CTO and manage 30 engineers and a dozen products. The company is well established and very stable. I assume that moving to Google would be a step down/back/sideways, at least in the beginning.

In this model, there is a vertical asymptote at x = 3 and a flat asymptote at y = 1. <a href="https://dailynewsscoop.com/how-to-find-vertical-asymptotes/"... How to Find Vertical Asymptotes </a> The bends approach these asymptotes however never cross them. To locate the vertical asymptote(s) of a sane capacity, essentially set the denominator equivalent to 0 and tackle for x.
