To be clear, I'm just not sure what it's like there now. Maybe it's still bad, maybe it's improved a lot. Probably it's a bit of both, depending on who you encounter.

My point is that even if they have improved (maybe they have!), their past reputation makes me reticent to even bother seeing if they have.

Former Google managers have explicitly told me that this filter is used for some positions at the resume screening level.

Sorry if I sounded salty. I have a great job and probably wouldn't work at Google even if they offered—just trying to frame the common perspective.
