This (like a lot of things at Google) varies wildly across PA and even among managers within a PA. All my managers so far have been extremely supportive of 20% time, and I've personally worked on three different 20% projects over my last four years (including two which have been open-sourced). That being said my engagement model has generally been less "one solid day a week" and more "a few days in a row once a month or two" in quieter times for my 80% gig, or "an hour or two every day" in busier ones. My understanding is that while I'm a little bit of an outlier, in general 20% time at Google is nowhere near as dead as people on the internet tend to claim (at least for engineers). |
