Google Cloud reviews

Making targets is challenging and is least coming from luck than talent. Processes and back-office are really pain in the ass. Unclear career perspectives.

Firstly, I suspect there is some fudging of comments below because what is being said is not true or they respondents are new and still drinking the glossy cool aid. Google Cloud is not Google. No where close to it. For the most part senior management are appalling individuals that have no leadership skills and motivate through passive bullying. Google cloud lacks relevance in the Australian market with significant resistance and distrust from organisations to consider them enterprise ready. Makes sales painful. Google cloud may roll out a great narrative around value or multi cloud or sustainability… but after sales support and resourcing is severely lacking. Most sales and customer engineers have been there long enough to see that things are not just cracking, but crumbling. Most sales teams don’t make their number… or get close. With that comes massive pressure from management. Management is sketchy at best. Land grabs, internal fighting, constant churn, ridiculous expectations to name a few problems. Internal tools and processes are horrendous. Long winded, complex, red tape foe the sake of it, decisions and approvals based on the US make process painfully slow. Finally, with an OTE at risk of 60%, forget commission based pay outs as being remotely likely.
