This is incredible, an amazing place to work. No wonder the people at google are innovative and often above the curve!




kalo kerja disana apa ja sarat na nya




EPIC, i would love to work there!




Only Google would provide masturbation pods!




wooowwww........ 4 thumbs up!!!!




umm, Where is this? I have seen the same pictures credited with 4 different Google offices in different countries.... Now I can see the interiors being the same (look at most franchises), but when the same people are in the same photos........




ROFL at pic #24. Rockin' out on the Xbox dashboard...




If they get paid I'm suidicing right now.




Gentlemen, this is what a bubble looks like.




It should be noted that they're 'rocking out' to the XBox dashboard.




Photoshopped.
Ive seen these photos on another site.
The pixels dont align.




wow i wana be in google :)




This is fantastic! What a great atmosphere. I'd love to see what employees do when they get angry. I imagine because of the surroundings it looks a bit like a kid throwing a temper-tantrum.




in the picture where they are 'playing guitar hero', the screen is on the 360 dashboard...so they aren't playing GH and are in fact posers, grrr




I so want to work there. Aha!




ah stumble, once again you've shown me unthinkable awesomeness




Pfff... No comment! :)




Savage !! mental ! Lefal




Come on !!!!! Its this for real ???? Its too good to be true




Nice to see people are having fun playing guitar hero on the xbox dashboard there. You think these people would at least pretend to play the game with it in the console?




wow on the guitar one they seem to be enjoying the xbox dashb0ard tht much even tho they aint even playin the game >.>

apart from tht this looked awsum




That's unbelieveble for a work place ! Good job Google ! hhmmm I wonder when our IBM is going to have such an office :)




very nice shame picture 24 is so staged tho lol guitar hero istn even on




You all see an awesome job, I see a savvy investment. You couldn't poach those minds with 10X the pay. That is pure genius.




Nice design choices for an office building. Giving employees a place like this to work probably helps keep them at the top of their game by reducing stress and by keeping them more engaged than a regular cubicle farm would




ok this has inspired me to become a computer junkie just so i can work for google.




what qualifications do i need to get a job there?




"above the curve" jesus, go on holiday!




Just to let it be noted. Google is rated at the #1 place to work as though the wages are usually 15% lower than industry average.




Great... Wonder how to get in there...




Navistina e mnogu dobro vakvo nesto i treba i na Makedonija




No kidding where do I sign up ?? i'd be a volunteer! Even if all of these pics aren't *real* I've seen the slide and other percs on some dateline or 20/20 special...it is a fabulous place to work...too bad all companies can't figure out happy employees are productive employees !!




I could easily go to work if I worked for Google. I bet their company moral and productivity is through the roof! If only every office did things like these...




F F O




I want to work there 0.0




Not only the Dashboard, but in the pool photo, it seems that they just added people. Notice, the balls are in the same place, minus the cue.




hmmm..... :-)...wen does dis amusement park open for da public????




Looks like somebody has been given an credit card and told to go out and buy any trendy crap you can find.




man, I'd even take a janitor position if it meant working there.




Isto kako i kaj nas vo Makedonija !!!!!!!!!!




All you "dashboard" people, note which screen the players are looking at. (Hint: it's not the left one.)




hey honey im home from work
how was your day?
it was terrible

LIAR!!




Oh my damn.




google has a hand chair they are obviously too rich!...a hand chair!




Very nice I want to work there ...




i'm so jealous. although i'd get NOTHING done.




So, do they get any work done in this Romper Room?




IT looks like the kids zone at Ikea + lot of cool shit!

for all the people saying that, "hey! they are rocking out to the dashboard!"

tell me. do YOU have an xbox "room" set up permanently at YOUR job? i didn't think so.




yeah yeah we've all seen them.. it is seriously too cool.. but you should know that google makes you work hard... very hard..




I it aint everyone saying: SHOPPED!!!

it is everyone pointing out that one of the pictures was posed for, who gives a rats ass.


Anyone who has stumbled here now wants a job with google.




I find myself hating these people for being lucky. I find myself hating myself for hating them. It just ain't right...




Forget McDonald's! Can I get an applaction!!!




All fun and games then somebody loses an eye. Or in this case, the stock crashes, which it will, internet sites ALWAYS do. Remember when Yahoo was the top search engine ? How about Napster ? Ya.... Live it up, Google, you're on borrowed time !




Started working at a company with the same kinda outlook. alhough not as totally outlandish as google, one doesn't really enjoy a chance to enjoy these perks as work is the order of the day. Is nice still though.




That's all pretty cool. Would cause anyone to be jealous. :) Anyway, I found this little bit that further elaborates:

wish I had a an office like that




they do have it set up to best utilize the brain's capacity for creativity. That is, work your butt off on a project, and take lots of breaks. Hence, the rooms with recliners in them, the pool table, the x-box, etc. Our brains will percolate on a problem while we are recreating, and BINGO an idea comes while we are weeding the garden or playing the piano. Or sleeping/dreaming




:)




I worked at google..these perks are nothing, there benefit sucks..health insurance sucks...pay is not great..better to work for mucrosft then googs...The thread shows a brutal honesty about what it’s like to work at Google, at least from the point of view of employees who were unhappy enough to resign. Top amongst the complaints is low pay relative to what they could earn elsewhere, and disappearing fringe benefits seemed to elevate the concern. Other popular gripes - too much bureaucracy, poor management, poor mentoring, and a hiring process that took months.

IKEA workplace is same as goog




slide is effing awesome! i want one




How gulible is people! You really believe that's how they really works? This make shock you but a lot of people actually resign this "wonderful" workplace, I wonder why?
These photos are just for naive young people...sorry to burst yor bubble, but someone had to do it..




you just want to cry about not having a job at google like me we are treated like kings so cry some more!!!! jk i dont work at google cry baby!!!




fuck xbox.




No job is perfect, but at least they're making an effort to keep the environment upbeat and fun. Assuming management doesn't bring you down.




Yes this does actually work this way. It's google, it's what google is famous for. They believe the happier people are the better they do their job, and it seems to work. For god sakes their motto is "Don't be Evil".




i want to go to there.




Is it me or are the first few images looking a lil' photoshopped?

If so, how lame. If not, move along once you've quickly skimmed through the pics as I've done




Wait........ what's an XBOX?




My dad works 4 the one in london, and ive been there, its almost the same as this, minus the aquarium and taxis :(
But still, games rooms, free food, food stations and everything up in that picture
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO :D




To the anonymous person who said working at google was horrible and added a website...

I might actually believe you if you knew how to spell.




aa to bahu saras google ne office che ne...




yeah but how about when google turned over the names to the chinese government, of people in china using google to search things and were all arrested and put in jail , yeah google is a nice place to work turning people in for using your search engine great you guys are awesome that's why I don't use google...




like shit, i say this now with all honesty, i used stumble. and shit if every work place was like this then sign me up!




friggin amasing place to work, look! strip poles!




For the people who say they arent playing guitar hero there are clearly two projectors and you cant see the other screen so now I hope you feel stupid




Nice office bro thanks for sharing




incredibile, Google e' sempre avanti:)




Are these fake books in the last photos?...
Besides, it's just amazing.




It looks like a great place to dick around all day, errm I mean work.




gi's a job!




what a waste of a shit load of money. google is a fuching joke. ugh.




Regardless of what you see in the photos, consider for a minute, the Ernst & Young office across the way. (Check out the first couple of photos.) THEIR office looks nothing like this, and yet (at least in the US) they are consistently rated as one of the top companies to work for -- and have been for 10 years running. Do you want to play, or do you want to get paid?




i work there




So you write ten rows of code and then play billiard and lay around and then maybe ten more lines... that's a fast way to get laizy in no time hehe... I bet they are like: stressed, if they should just sit and pretend to think about something really deap or go to work...




Wow nice office

משרד חקירות




I just have one thing to say. I want to work here.




Wow google have the most happy people because they work with imaginations wow but that people is smart very smart to work for google.Google is good company and good searcher i didn't use another searcher just google bye and see ya google




It would fun if I were six years old. As an adult, it would be a little embarrassing. I just want to sit in a chair, not a freaking slingshot.




wow! I want to work there when I grow up :p




I wish that was my office :(
+ I spotted a Space Invader <3




can I work at Google too?




What a bunch of spoiled brats. Try life in the real world folks.




veryy nice.
