Pros

Comp can be good depending on customers / territory

Cons

Culture is fast eroding and leadership is tactical and focused on deals, without a strategic long term vision. Google Cloud is like your typical Enterprise sales environment, reps' sales number is the only thing that matters. Reps are managed out faster and faster at the first sign of trouble.

Cool company, terrible manager

Pros

Fantastic team, hot technology, awesome customer wins to reference, great culture of innovation.

Cons

They’ve hired a lot of former IBM and SAP people in the Cloud business, and as a result my opinion is that much of the sales leadership does not understand how to grow a new territory from nothing, as they’ve worked in large companies selling into an established customer base for much of their careers. They seem to believe reps can just say “Google” and get money thrown at them. The final six months were spent dreading every interaction with my manager, who entered outright falsehoods in my performance review record. I’ve never had a bad performance review in my entire career, I’m certain the problem wasn’t me. I’m happy to have moved on. I’d work there again, but would never work for that manager ever again. It suggests all the talk about culture is just make believe, otherwise they shouldn’t still be working there. They were not Googley at all.

Great culture and very competent people.

Cons

Not easy to win against Azure an d AWS due to perception of the data privacy of the customer.
