I thought Terraform provider was developed/maintained by Hashicorp, not Google. Are Google employees actively involved? I also did encounter annoying issues (which have slowly been getting better though).

I guess it might speak to a solid, if somewhat slow, API.

Yeah they've got a nifty tool called Magic Modules that partially auto-generates the Terraform Provider (along with Ansible and InSpec) from the GCP API:

My understanding is that it is actively maintained by GCP employees, but yes Hashicorp owns the repo.

The terraform provider is usually a near 1:1 mapping of the provider's APIs.
