As someone who interviewed for a role last year, they're mostly migrated to Java / Python for backend services, some Go getting introduced as well. And half of my interviewers were working remotely from Spain / France / UK / etc.

Amazing job security really for those that work there

ironic being a travel website.

Google having a competitor for Zoom, FB once being so into meta, Apple promoting Vision pro as game changer yet none of them dogfood their own products, to integrate work from home. I guess building something is not the same as doing what works for them. Yeah, ironic, but that how businesses work, I think.

If you’re working for any of those companies even if you are in the office, more than likely you are working with people in other offices on your team.

But then again, I have no idea about how colocated the teams at Apple and Google are.

The difference is that Google, FB, Meta and Apple all have remote work policies - and depending on your role can be full remote.

Though yes, Apple/Meta as of late are trying to get people back in Office. Google I hear still lets you do full remote.

Full remote at Google is now mostly grandfathered employees. It is basically impossible to transition from in-office to remote.
