Google have also shown some resistance to GPL projects. When GCC was the only game in town they'll use it, but recently CLang has gotten to the stage of being a feasible alternative. I'd imagine that, even if they considered both GCC & LLVM technically equal to the task, they'd favour the non-GPL project.

Google is a company run by its engineers. You'll find a widely diverse set of opinions and attitudes and licensing - it depends more on the individuals involved than some corporate stance.

Yes, google has no official corporate stance, except that we support both projects.

Any big company has a widely diverse set of opinions and attitudes. The only difference between companies is how much of this diversity is hidden/controlled.
