Ask HN: Is Google worth leaving a good position for?
I have recently been offered an interview onsite at Google for an engineering position. If I was offered this position, I would have to relocate my family to another city where we have no other family and only a few friends. (Neither I nor the position are in the US)<p>I currently have a great job at a small but highly technical consulting firm with an experienced team, above average pay, training and conference budget, flexible hours and the ability to work from home one day a week. I have been here seven years but have not real desire to leave as I am still constantly learning.<p>I personally don&#x27;t know anyone who has worked at Google, therefor I am asking, are the opportunities and experience provided by Google worth leaving an already good position for?<p>I realise this is a very subjective question and it would be a lot easier to answer if I was to get an offer, but any insights would be helpful.
