Ever Wonder What It Would Be Like to Work At Google?

Google Solar Array, Mountain View, California

A full-size replica of Virgin Atlantic's Spaceship One (space tourist vehicle) hangs in the reception area.

  • Today, Google employs 20,223 people around the world, receiving a resume every 25 seconds from eager job-seekers, hiring an average of nine new employees a day.

Exercise

  • To work off the pounds, and the stress… Google has its own state-of-the-art gym, offering weight-training and a host of exercise machines, rowing machines, lockers and shower rooms, and two swim-in-place wave pools.
  • Other perks include free haircuts, dry cleaning and laundry, child care, car services, chiropractors and five onsite doctors available for employee check-ups; all free of charge.

  • Perhaps the most unusual bonus of all… employees can bring their dogs to work with them and keep the four-legged canine in their offices.
  • We already know that working for Google has certain advantages, but, believe me, this giant of a search engine takes the welfare of its employees seriously as shown by this decompression (stress) capsule that is impermeable to sound and light….

Moving around the complex

  • A slide allows quick access from different floors… There are also poles available… they are similar to the ones used in fire stations.

Food


Work Station

  • There are 4-6 ‘Zooglers’ per office.

Innovation

  • Large boards are available just about everywhere because ‘ideas don’t always come when seated in the office says one of Google’s managers.

Leisure


Communication


Tech Stop

  • Having trouble with your computer? No problem…
  • Bring it to this area where drinks are available while it is being fixed.

Health & Rest

  • Professional massage therapists are available.
  • View relaxing aquariums on massage chairs that you control…

Ambiance

There are many books in this library... even some about programming!
