Honestly, I've heard the majority of it before, and I have never been a Google employee. I have, however, listened to some of their talks on the internal workflows and processes that they've presented and posted on youtube. I think the only things I didn't hear before were some of the specific toolnames. edit: [link] here's their engineering tools blog. ▶ this video and a talk [link] and another talk Really cool stuff.
