A day at the Google Office ...

You've heard about the perks, the free food, and the ultra-creative environment. But have you ever wondered what it's really like to work at Google? Google Office doors in London are open to the public to visit therefore I took the opportunity to go for a tour guided by one of the employees. Conversation got me thinking about what makes a Google office so Googly that everyone is drawn to them? The Colors: Why are they colorful? Partly for the fun, creative vibe color brings to any space. The encouragement to PLAY. If you look into any of Google’s offices – you’ll always find some sort of play in action. Most have video gaming, while others have swimming, gyms, and even volleyball. An outstanding cafeteria. When I first heard about Google and their work experience, I believe it was the free meals they provided their employees. While this might seem like an innocent perk, I believe the goal is to encourage employees to work longer. Google huge new London HQ which is in construction next door.... got space for more than 4,000 employees, a rooftop garden with a running track, and has been dubbed a “landscraper” for being as long as a skyscraper is tall. I cant wait to visit it when it will be open. Denis #london #googleofficevisitor #googlehq #workplace
