Google – The Best Place To Work

11 Feb 2007 (Sun)

Is this how the actual Google “office” is like? I wanna be there too!

Note: Found this video because someone from Harro left a note on the shoutbox on one of my websites. So I checked out his/her website. It happened to be Harro Channels which has a link to ping.sg, a community meta blog for Singapore bloggers. There was a listing of popular posts. So, I clicked on the topmost one… and voila!

    Afternote: Since the video is no longer available, I’m adding a quote from Google CEO Eric Schmidt which summarizes what the video showed:

    “The goal is to strip away everything that gets in our employees way. We provide a standard package of fringe benefits, but on top of that are first-class dining facilities, gyms, laundry rooms, massage rooms, haircuts, carwashes, dry cleaning, commuting buses – just about anything a hardworking employee engineer might want. Let’s face it: programmers want to program, they don’t want to do their laundry. So we make it easy for them to do both.”

Hi! I love getting your comments, especially on-topic questions, opinions, experiences or insights. In fact, as Chris Brogan put it, "The more valuable your comments, the more it reflects on your ability and your character." Only then is it useful to build awareness of your brand. And if I'm impressed by your comment, I may write a post that links to some useful content on your blog. On the other hand, personal attacks (on anyone), inane comments, and advertorial comments (e.g. comments signed off with a product/service name and not a human name/nickname... read my rant here) will be deleted or sent to my Spam filter. (For off-topic messages, Contact Me or just "Shout".)

NOTE: Comments are moderated on a daily or even weekly basis here. If your comment does not appear immediately, there is no need to resubmit it.
