About Google:
Building great products depends on great people. There are
more than 40,000 Googlers behind the tools that you use every day—from search
to Chrome. Find out more about what it’s like to work at Google, where we work
and who drives our company strategy below. It’s really the people that make Google the kind of company
it is. We hire people who are smart and determined, and we favor ability over
experience. Although Googlers share common goals and visions for the company,
we hail from all walks of life and speak dozens of languages, reflecting the
global audience that we serve. And when not at work, Googlers pursue interests
ranging from cycling to beekeeping, from frisbee to foxtrot. We strive to maintain the open culture often
associated with startups, in which everyone is a hands-on contributor and feels
comfortable sharing ideas and opinions. In our weekly all-hands (“TGIF”)
meetings—not to mention over email or in the cafe—Googlers ask questions
directly to Larry, Sergey and other execs about any number of company issues.
Our offices and cafes are designed to encourage interactions between Googlers
within and across teams, and to spark conversation about work as well as play.
