Biz Ops & Strategy is the “central” strategy team (closes thing they have to a corp Strat team) that works on engagements throughout Google as a whole.

S&O is more like a BU strategy team, generally aligned to a specific group and working on strategy engagements within their space.

+1 but would even question that S&O has "engagements" - they work directly with the team they are embedded in and roles & responsibilities can vary dramatically due to this and over time.

You will likely work a lot on OKR & Goal setting or Budget & Headcount questions for your group.

All these people liking my post, yet no one is commenting. 😫🫠
