What is it like working as a Software Engineer?
July 2019
Great idea, but expecting too much for little pay.

Nice and Steady.
Software Engineer in New York:
Pros: Great work life balance, decent pay and benefits.
Cons: Not quite tier 1 comp, feels a bit less organized than some 'pure' tech companies. We would benefit from more organized program management and direction. Tries to run a little on the lean side, at the expense of speed/productivity imo.
July 2019
Challenging and stressful but in an exciting way.

Cons: some uncertainty

Amazing Perks and Great Technology.
Software Engineer in Kirkland:
Pros: Google has amazing technology and great people. I get to build cool tools every day and Google rewards me for my work. Working at Google is an amazing experience and a huge blessing.
Cons: Google zealously embraces progressive politics. Other political viewpoints are unwelcome, especially when it comes to so-called "culture war" topics. (so I just don't talk about such subjects at work).
