> “Software Engineering at Google: Lessons Learned from Programming Over Time”
Isn't Google's software engineering culture kind of a joke right now? I've spoken to multiple ex-Googlers and they tell me they leave because everything moves at a snail's pace. From the outside looking in, it seems like absolutely nothing is being done in Google and I would not want to replicate their engineering culture in any company.
Please don't take this as flame bait and I'm open to discussion about what I'm missing. I feel like for people in the know, Google has a reputation for being a "retirement home".
Fair criticism, I have seen similar posts and articles about things inside there now. But the book is not so much about the current culture or setting now, but more on the authors experiences and what things have made the company successful long term from an engineering perspective. Good book to get insight on different topics or areas.

GPT-3 output vibes, but I do love reading technical or professional books regularly!

As a software engineer, staying up-to-date with the latest developments and best practices is essential for growth. One of my favorite (and what I feel is overlooked) methods for growth is reading books. We spend a large part of our day reading Stack Overflow...
