Speaking as a former Google engineer? I know a few disillusioned Google engineers :) Just understand from the outside looking in the company is still very much tantalizing. Most companies worth working for these days have a similarly stringent interview process so I can't see what the disadvantage would be of upping your technical skills.

Not former nor current. Me too!

And yes, the Google interview process made me aware of some (important) blanks in my knowledge

At the same time they ignore the "incidental" talents and knowledge of people in their process (a lot of times, technical knowledge).

I also compare what they're doing with what people that got turned down are doing
