In this Screaming in the Cloud Replay, we revisit a spirited debated between Corey and the VP of Product and Industry Marketing at Google Cloud, Brian Hall. The topic — How much time should one spend in a job? But thankfully, their conversation doesn’t limit itself to just that! Corey and Brian chat about how social media’s failure to capture nuance and context can lead to some unfortunate misinterpretations. Brian offers some insight on his significant amount of time spent at Microsoft under various roles. He gives his perspective on how one should optimize their career path for where they want to go, and not just follow the money. Tune in to see how Corey and Brian let the dust settle, and develop what was a disagreement into a well-rounded conversation.Show Highlights:(0:00) Intro(1:02) Chronosphere sponsor read(1:36) Job hopping vs. job loyalty(6:14) Being in the right place at the right time(9:57) Investing in the job vs. the job investing in you(13:31) Weighing the cost of job hopping(20:14) Chronosphere sponsor read(20:47) Changing jobs to get a raise(24:02) How to attract people as a cloud employer(26:31) Changing paths into the industry(30:14) What's ahead for Brian(32:33) Where you can find more from BrianAbout Brian HallBrian Hall leads the Google Cloud Product and Industry Marketing team - focused on accelerating the growth of Google Cloud.
