Excited to share I’ll be starting at Google in April at the NYC office. I learned the NYC office will be RTO. Don’t get me wrong, I am eager to come into an office again after working completely remote. But I’d like to maintain some wfh flex since it’s a long commute for me. Any suggestions?

Is it too late to negotiate? From what you’ve written it seems like this is the sort of thing that would be mutually disclosed (your and google’s preferences) at many of the earlier stages of recruiting and interviewing. What happened OP?

It’s a 3/2 hybrid model, 3 in office 2 wfh. Most orgs are t/w/th in office.
Most managers are also promoting flexibility for at least a couple more months.

Thank you!

Yeah both fair points. Understood it’s a 3/2 hybrid model. I live 1.5h away from the city (1 way, so looking at 3-4h a day).

Tbh I didn’t explicitly negotiate this — My manager is on the west coast. During my team match call, his general view seemed he is pretty open minded about where his team works.

So I felt I could do hybrid for initial period then work with my manager on a more flex model 🤷🏽‍♀️

Ya perf. Thanks!

Just got rejected for a role at Google 😞

Keep going! This wasn’t my first try

Hi, I'm an employee at a hotel chain who works remotely. I've been working remotely for over a year now and I love it! The company I work for is very supportive of remote workers, which is great.

But there's one thing that's been bothering me: it's hard to get feedback on my work when I'm not in the office. It would be great if there was some kind of system that let me know how my performance was being evaluated while I'm working on projects from home.

Hello!

I finished my final round(s) for a TAM position at 
Google (GCP) last week and was told by my recruiter that my feedback was great and that I made a solid impression on the team and am "firmly in the running". I was supposed to hear back this week (according to the recruiter) but he just told me that it's still in the process and that I'll have to wait for another week or so.

Is this common at Google ? I have heard they are notorious for being really slow with their hiring process.
