The bidding process seems like something that could be brimming with discrimination.

For example, if you didn't go to a top tier school you could be hired on only to find out that a single team wants you. It's in bumfuck nowhere 2000 miles away and its primary purpose is to program the road sign outside google HQ.

It could lead to very different googles for different people, and makes me wonder if applying to work there would really be worthwhile for someone like me.

This remind me that I don't like employment anti-discrimination laws, especially for jobs highly unlike manual labor. One of the reasons is PIPs which best show the kinds of problems I am talking about IMO, and I think there is a lot of laws that varies by state there (with California being most strict I think).
