I didn't even apply until finding a team I was really excited about. I had coffee with a couple TPMs and managers, found the right group, applied, and have been really happy. The median tenure of the folks I work with is 5 years, and so far it's been great.

Google is awesome if you can avoid the allocation problem, I agree. I was not given such options.

Could not you switch team while you were at Google?

People usually switch after a year and a half of being on a team, but not much different than that.

You can, but not in 4 months typically.
