Life at the GooglePlex

This is crazy, if Google can afford to spend this much on eloborate employee benefits how much are they making of us? (Adwords, Adsense)

Time features an article about life in the Googleplex. What googlers do when they don’t code great applications? They swim, create graffiti, play volleyball, eat three free gourmet meals a day that can be eaten in a cafeteria adorned by artwork created by Google employees and unwind with a professional massage.

The article is a wonderful insight of what it’s like inside Google headquarters in Silicon Valley. I wonder if the employees ever do any work. But that’s because I’m jealous.

    It’s amazing how much money they are making and how narrow minded the consumer habits of everybody really is…

    I boycotted Google products a while ago. I have no interest in supporting them.
