Google is so legit

Their mission statement is something along the lines of "have fun, don't be evil"

Their office is sick

i think i read that they were rated the #1 place to work. I bet getting in there is mad hard. And i also think these pics are probably just of certain different areas. I'd assume that somewhere in there they have regular meeting rooms and stuff.  Still pretty sick though

those offices are ridiculous.

but to be negative nancy, I bet the reason google makes such a comfy office area is to keep its employies there for longer hours, thus more work. smart idea.

no way.. most of them work the hours that fit their schedule.
Definitely one of the best selling features.

basically they only take the best of the best. People have left companies like microsoft, IBM, and HP to go work for google.

My friends brother works at google, he is a computer programmer. He said the job is AWESOME. He official job title is like a "Level 3 Ninja" or something. He brings his DOG TO WORK! How sweet is that haha.

He said that one day he showed up to work and there was a large cardboard box on everyones desk. When they opened up the boxes, they were full of slingshot monkeys, with the rubber bands you shoot at people. Their goal for the day was to see how many people they could shoot monkeys at haha what a job.

My dad's office has random golf holes in the floor with little flags in them so you can play mini golf, but thats just ridiculous.  Should have gotten good with computers.

a family friend works there.  he takes a bus owned and opperated by google from his apartment to the office.  this bus has wi-fi.  he does work on the bus and when he gets to work he does like an hour of work then goes to lunch.  then he goes to the gym in the office and works out for a couple hours and then he does like 2 more hours of work before getting back on the bus and going home.  such a sick job

exactly, you need to be at the top of your game to get hired. a guy i know now works at their san fransisco headquarters, he's an arrogant douche that will stab you in the back if it benefits him and that's pretty much how he got there.

i remember watching something about the google office and they want you to be as comfortable at the workplace as possible so that you can be as constructive as possible when working.
