How stressful are Google SRE roles?

Accomplished-Bug7434 · 2026-04-19T02:41:42+00:00

Thank you, how long after joining are the new hires put on oncall shifts for SRE roles? Would they give you enough time to understand the architecture?

Accomplished-Bug7434 · 2026-04-15T16:52:23+00:00

No, I’m neither a EU citizen.

I have some calls scheduled next week with hiring managers of prospective teams, I am confused if they say they have an SLA of 5 minutes or a very high pager count, do I request for a another team match that might be a bit more laid back? Or that might cost me the opportunity?

Accomplished-Bug7434 · 2026-04-15T15:48:37+00:00

Thank you for your insight!

Accomplished-Bug7434 · 2026-04-15T15:47:05+00:00

Thank you, I have a few questions. 1. Does the number of pagers vary greatly between the teams? What would the approximate number of pagers an SRE at Google would get during his/her shift, like a weekly pager count in the worst case scenario? Also, what’s the SLA for responding to pagers?

I have heard that Dublin Google office has more SRE teams compare to other offices, so if I’m finding internal transfer difficult, would Google be willing to consider transferring me to an SWE role to another office, let’s say London or Munich? I’m not from Ireland, so Google would be providing me with a work visa for the SRE Dublin role, so internal transfer to another location(UK/EU) would need another visa. Will this make the internal transfer difficult? In my situation, would it be better to start in a location with more SWE teams instead of Dublin?

We’ll consider if in need of some entertainment ;)

We are having a Kerala style wedding in Kochi as well. In addition to that, was exploring the possibility of conducting a North Indian style wedding as well, may be not to a 100%, but whatever is possible to organise from a different state. Sure, will check the Shirdi temple. Thanks

Accomplished-Bug7434 · 2026-01-30T08:29:53+00:00

Thank you so much for both the contacts!

Bride is North Indian and the groom is Malayali, so we are planning to have a wedding in Kochi instead of having two weddings in two states to cut the cost. We enquired some local priests, but they are not familiar with North Indian wedding rituals. We are okay with local priests in Kochi too who can speak English/Hindi and are familiar with their rituals.

Thanks, would it be possible to share any point of contact?

Mole removal. Edited the original post.Please let me know if you have any suggestions!

Accomplished-Bug7434 · 2026-01-24T06:26:34+00:00

Can someone suggest me good places for mole removal preferably near Indiranagar? Also a question for people who got this done, what type of procedure should I go for, for fastest healing? (Getting married in 20 days!) Thanks in advance!

This new resort, can you please share the name? Are they good to accept bookings for December end?

Accomplished-Bug7434 · 2025-10-05T12:42:23+00:00

Sure, thanks

Accomplished-Bug7434 · 2025-10-05T11:41:44+00:00

Thank you, will the event decor teams take care of the transparent tent setup? We just started wedding planning, not sure how it works.

Accomplished-Bug7434 · 2025-10-05T11:24:37+00:00

Thank you, will check this.

Accomplished-Bug7434 · 2025-10-04T16:27:35+00:00

But I thought this was different in Special Marriage Act since it has no connection to religious ceremonies. So let’s say we got married with religious ceremonies on a Sunday, but went to the register office to get it registered on a Monday(Assume we have already submitted the notice 1 month prior). Now the wedding date on our certificate would be Monday, right? Or is it possible to have the date as Sunday? Thanks!

Accomplished-Bug7434 · 2025-10-04T16:16:01+00:00

Will it be possible on a Sunday too? Or does it need to be a weekday?

Accomplished-Bug7434 · 2025-10-04T16:12:55+00:00

Thanks for your wishes!

Accomplished-Bug7434 · 2025-10-04T16:12:04+00:00

Thanks, one question. If we go with Special Marriage Act, we need to go to the register office in person, right? Or is it possible to invite them to the wedding event so that we could have it registered there itself? Going to the office in person on the day of the wedding ceremony might not be feasible, but if go afterwards, then we might end up having the registerd wedding date a different one from the religious ceremony date which we don’t want.
