Default If Google ever asks you if you'd like to work for them,

You should answer "HELL YES!"


Ever want to take a look inside Google?

Google solar array at their Mountain
View, California world headquarters

Today, Google employs approximately
20,200 people around the world, receiving
a resume every 25 seconds from eager
job-seekers, hiring an average of nine new
employees a day.

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

Exercise Facilities
============================

To work off the pounds, and the stress . . .

Google has its own state-of-the-art gym
offering supervised weight-training and a
host of exercise machines, rowing
machines, lockers, 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 on-site
doctors available for employee care and
periodic 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
between floors which are similar to the
ones used in fire stations.

Food on site
===================

Employees can eat all they want for free
from a vast choice of food and drink,
prepared by in-house chefs.
