I Worked at Microsoft Cloud and Google Mobile for 3 Years — Here Are the Differences in Ecosystems
It was on the 21st of May. I had a couple of colleagues and my wife congratulating me for this. That made me wonder if this is really something that deserves praise. Somewhere down the line, it took me on a retrospective journey, and here we are — with a long essay!
So in a way I just got 50–50% experience in all these verticals. Although I must confess, the second half benefitted greatly from all the experiences of the first.
Upon retrospecting, I realized just how much difference there is in terms of the constraints we deal with, the thought process we carry while building the two, the nature of the release cycles, and the service level agreements we offer to the clients.
This is a long essay! Longer than any I have ever written. When I started I didn’t realise there was so much to say but there is.
If you are interested in getting the key insights, move directly to Differences in working on cloud and mobile (edge) section. I have divided differences into key verticals feel free to pick and choose vertical of interest.
