Companies like Google often have several tiers of VP: VPs, Senior VPs, sometimes even Executive VPs, etc. It means that it's a manager very high in the hierarchy, but due to the company being big enough, there's non trivial amount of people like them among managers.

P.S. According to levels.fyi (https://www.levels.fyi/?compare=Google,Bloomberg,Amazon&trac...) Google has only VPs and SVPs, not EVPs.

It doesn't, because there are so many of them. Looking at this for example: https://www.zippia.com/google-careers-24972/salary/vice-pres... I wouldn't say VP ranks very high at Google.

At least in PM land, director comp starts at $1M/yr, I'm sure VP comp is a multiple of that. The link you've provided is not accurate. Am Google PM.

The link is wrong. Most VPs make more than that a month.

This is so wildly inaccurate. I know L3s making that much.

That's inaccurate. VP is a really high title, most likely your manager's manager is Sundar Pitchai or someone who reports to him. TC is in the millions of dollars for those people.

Google does has SVPs. E.g. https://www.linkedin.com/in/urs-h%C3%B6lzle-b3168365
