“The Google Cloud I'm currently a part of is not the Google Cloud I joined, in a very positive way. There’s so much forward momentum coming from Thomas Kurian and our leadership team in thinking about what the customers need from us and how we pivot the organization really quickly to show up and meet the customer where they are on their journey,”
- Darren Mowry
