Honestly, it's not as bad as AWS or Azure. Plus if you use k8s it's first-in-class support, since Google came up with k8s. There is a fairly steep learning curve though.

If you're deploying anything in cloud infra you need to make sure it's portable between providers. Vendor lock-in is a big avoidable no-no.

In my opinion AWS is considerably more clear and simple than gcloud.

They're both very complex so it's understandable people would have different experiences. In general I've found GCP fairly straightforward, with shitty documentation, generally good support of fundamentals, great k8s support, good prices, fairly modern APIs, and relatively low feature coverage. AWS more built out, awful & totally inconsistent UI, better feature coverage, higher prices, and some pretty janky XML APIs if memory serves.
