They've never tried to deeply understand our use cases or business at all. Hopefully they turn this around but IMO, Google is absolutely horrible at B2B, they're just not currently set up to do it correctly.

In the large enterprise migrations I've worked on the past 2 years, I haven't heard a Google employee or partner say, "you're doing it wrong." Sometimes there is a response along the lines of, "we don't recommend doing it that way for the following specific reasons. For your consideration, here are alternatives we recommend for your use case. We've filed your use case as a feature request with product."
Additionally, I've seen issues which block a migration to GCP get escalated and fixed quickly. Issues which in ~2015 might have garnered a, "you're doing it wrong" response.
I've noticed a real shift in attitude and execution. There is genuine empathy and an attempt to understand how enterprise customers run their workloads in the cloud, multi-cloud and hybrid-cloud.
