Episode notes
Early Google Singapore
- In Google's early Singapore days, Aliza and colleagues competed for a single large monitor in their small office.
- This scarcity contrasts sharply with Google's current spacious campus.
Career Upgrades
- Aliza views her career progression as a series of software upgrades (1.0, 2.0, 3.0).
- Each version represents a distinct phase: consulting, tech leadership, and now board/mentorship roles.
Quitting vs. Reframing
- "Don't Quit Your Day Job" encourages reflection before resigning, addressing the "great resignation" trend.
- Aliza suggests job dissatisfaction often stems from broader work-life integration issues, not the job itself.
