I already have a AWS cloud practitioner cert and an Azure foundation cert. Whenever I interview for cloud positions, there seems to be an interest in GCP.
As a firm, I like Google & their moonshot ideas. I dream of one day joining the elite team. Is the firm really worth the hype? @AWS

Can you really apply to cloud positions with fundamental cloud certifications? Thought you would need at a minimum the solution architect level cert

I don’t work in cloud but I know AWS still owns the highest market share but I’ve seen a lot more interest in Azure

Can’t go wrong with either, we’re both doing a lot of the same things, have the same pressures, same nuances etc. Google just has the benefit of flashy name recognition and thoughts of movies like the intern, but I can tell you from firsthand experience that it’s not like that (at least in cloud).

There’s tradeoffs to both, going to either will slow down career trajectory as both have long and tough promotion cycles. Comp probably favors the industry due to $/hr, but if you have like of sight to partner I might encourage you to hold tight.

Thanks . The $/hour is the reason that I am considering moving to the the tech industry as opposed to staying in consulting. I have heard from more than one AWS person that it’s very cutthroat culture and WLB is non existent.

How is it at Google?

Is it easy to move from Google cloud to other areas within Google, like Google Photos, or Maps or even YouTube?
