That means you are lucky, they do a favor to you. Search a little bit about what it takes to work for them on Reddit. if you get an offer from them which quaranties you can get a much better one outside anyways.

Sometimes people do those type of things to effect your balance. Be your self, listen the feedback and backpropogate any improvements and move on. Most likely you are a head of things and they want you to slow down for them to catch up.

Cool! I will make sure my new startup starts with a letter which is not used yet. Will we see companies changing their names for possible acquisitions.

To summarize (correct me if I'm wrong):

- Google will now be operated as a subsidiary of a new company called Alphabet.

- Alphabet will be publicly traded under the same symbols as Google is now traded.

- Stock will just transfer as-is.

- Sundar Pichai is now the CEO of Google.

- Larry and Sergey will run Alphabet as CEO and President, respectively.

One more thing, Google will be named to Gisco.

Alphabet is only missing a startup accelerator, why wouldn't Sergey and Larry now focus on earlier stage themselves? All those ambitious things can be achieved better by a lot of startupa competing in parallel.

A - AirBnb U - Uber P - Pinterest or Palantir (they need to work hard) May be they should create a sub companies for the collisions.

Btw, i was thinking Amazon A2Z was doing this virtually.
