Why I Don’t Talk to Google Recruiters

Since Google is an advertising company that even hires their own chefs, I would not expect 100% of their employees to be software developers.

It's more on the order of 20k developers, not 57k.

There is an enormous difference between poor code and a library you don't like. I may not be a huge fan of Angular 2, but it's certainly not poorly written code.
