Google employees confess: "I was genuinely out of my league."
Paul Buttery, senior product analyst: "My first week was more intimidating than anticipated. I fell for what’s commonly referred to as imposter syndrome. The members of my new team were insanely smart and accomplished. Not ‘I got straight A’s in college’ smart. More like ‘I created Google Mars and published a dozen patents before I was of legal drinking age’ smart."
"Most had worked with Sebastian Thrun (self-driving cars, Udacity) at Stanford or on Maps. How was I going to provide value here? In hindsight, I was genuinely out of my league."
