"companies don't try new things" - HN

"Google kills products" - HN

99% of the people here would gladly work at Google. But what's the next best thing .. downplay the company you couldn't get into :) Carry on !

I wouldn't gladly work for Google. I hope I'm not in the 1%.

Google isn’t trying new things they are re-releasing the same apps with less functionality while simultaneously killing off user bases. This isn’t some esoteric engineer criticism - it’s mainstream at this point.

I was trying to get into Google 3 times in my life. Results so far:

- some (all? one?) interview failure (no feedback), rejection

- interviews passed, no degree in CS (which was known to them prior of the interviews), rejection

- interviews passed, this time missing CS degree is not a problem, no cultural fit, rejection

I think I am done. You are assumption is without merit though.

There are many many people without CS degrees at Google.
