Google maps work commute estimates in CA are not accurate at all. Probably looking at 30-45mins during rush hour which would be soul crushing if you've previously fought 20 other applicants for a year long lease at a place in walking distance of the old HQ

I work in CA and the estimates are usually accurate to ±10%. There are some rare exceptions for rapidly evolving situations.

Of course, if you do a driving estimate outside of commute hours, it won't match a commute time estimate, in many places.

Where are you guys living that you have to fight 20 people for a lease?

San Francisco is not an easy place to get an affordable apartment, especially one that is located near work and/or good public transportation options.
