Hey folks 👋🏻 How do you feel about this?

Strategy & Operations

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

If you are new, You get to know the Gen AI overview from Google Employees. 

Have fun!

To those who are interested, Google’s StartUp school has a 6 week Gen AI program.

Hey folks 👋🏻

Been seeing a lot of articles by the publication praising google's gen AI model - Gemini and the strategy around it. Articles heavily implying doom is just around the corner for Open AI because Gemini is going to kill it.

I firmly think Open AI currently has a huge headstart, and is the model of choice for devs as well as general folks and google (where i also work) has a lot (A LOT!) of catching up to do. Does anyone get the same sense from their articles?

What is the deal with Analytics India Mag

Investor

In Google Bangalore office, my team has few WITCH employees on contractual basis having salaries in range of 5-6 lakhs with work experience of 2-4 years. 

While permanent Google employees are not allowed to use o1 models on official laptop, WITCH employees have no such constraints. 

In last 3-4 days, WITCH employees are outperforming few permanent Google employees (having salaries in range of 60 lakhs to 1 crores) of my team.

This has convinced me that once Orion, Gemini 2 (embedded with Alpha zero, Alpha proof technique) etc. is released within year end, most dedicated WITCH employees (having salary of 5 lakh rs. ) can contribute in software development more than FAANG employees not using these AI tools.

I witnessed smth in Google which convinced me that WITCH companies can solve the problem of 'perennial problem of unemployable graduate'.

People who were affected just got emails. Orgs include Search, Cloud, Ads , Assistant,  Pixel, etc. Engg is affected

Big layoffs at Google!

Last I saw someone post that his Google Interview has started.  
  
 Guess, FAANG are showing their fangs.  
  
 Apple laid off subcontractors and not employees from what I read.

Project Coordinator

One more section of AI startups are gonna be vaporized today :p

Speculations on what may happen? Feels like something big that will be announced.

Is this seriously how Google plans to take on Chat GPT?

A paradise for rest and vest people on the right team
- Do under 40 hours and get normal rating
- System is self healing, you can break something and don’t care
- Deadlines are a joke
- No responsibility
- Can ignore pings and care about anything

A nightmare for career growing mindset people
- Tech island
- Hard work are all abstracted away
- Promo is too fucking complicated
- Overhired and slow growth equals to slow promo
- Politics growing everyday. Basically hunger game to fight for impact and projects

Google is not the same anymore, things are changing rapidly & soon it will be worse.

Google is..

Xoogler here. I echo this so much, and it's what made me leave (was in a tech role as well) 

Google really was my dream company through life, but 2-3 months in, things really became clear (luckily I was in a startup before Google, and that was crucial to understand what was wrong there). 

- You can't really do something great, it's just mundane things on repeat 
- After the first 6-7 months on the role, you're usually not learning, because of point 1
- People are amazing, but they're not as driven as you'd expect 
- Growth is stunted 
- Promotion is the main thing on everyone's agenda (without realizing there may be better work out there) 

Ultimately, I feel it's an amazing culture and company but people have become too comfortable to realize the flaws :(

Engineering Manager

I am a Software Engineer with 6 years of work experience. Currently working for a US based startup. Previously I have worked for Amazon and a couple of Indian startups.

My current org is remote and I am working from my hometown. It's super chill in this company and work is only to build CRUD and APIs. I feel too stagnant here, my manager is also super chill and is in retirement mode. I feel this will message my future.

I joined this company so I can work on my start up but haven't been very active there too.

Recently a Google recruiter contacted me for a L4 role and had the recruiter screen and he scheduled the interview for the next month.
Google base monthly salary for L4 is way below my current since it's a US based startup. But with RSUs Google annual CTC his higher.

I am confused whether to continue in my org and focus back on startup or start preparing for Google interview. In the long term I want to start my company. At the same time Google will offer an AI ecosystem and resources that will help my startup.

Please share your views.

Please help. Too much confusion.

AI is unlike any other past technology revolution. It is going to make cost of intelligence trending toward zero. 

Going by exponential curve of AI growth, in next 3-4 years, we are going to have an AI model which can code better than 95% of coders... 

Deep mind already has model Alphacode which can code better than 50% of competitive coders. 

People are living in fool's paradise by thinking that AI will create massive amount of job.... 

It won't because it will make cost of intelligence near to zero making coding, analyst, consultant, product management job redundant.... 

What takes 100 coders to build a product won't take more 10 coders in few years from now...

Crisis coming for White collar job

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

Atleast not in the form it is now. Found a rare good post on LinkedIn via Twitter which lists the reason why i think so. Also, I was reading psychology of money and one of the chapters discussed how GE used to be the most valued company in 2000s and how within 20 years, everything went to manhole.

Google is seriously going through a leadership crisis. I hate Pichai from the gut. We Indians like him coz he's brown munda, but I have never seen such narrow minded CEO since Balmer.

Hot Take: Google will not exist in next 30 years

Many other xooglers raised these leadership issues earlier. 
 Meanwhile, tier2/3 kids are burning midnight oil to land up in Google to start YT channel
