"if the project is related to your job" -- the whole point of 20% time was that _you_ choose what you work on, not the manager that defines the boundaries of your job.
"120%"? Isn't that the same as "not paid to work on this, but company owns it"?
I think you've drunk the koolaid.
- cobookman 10y ago120% in yes you are doing more then 40 hours a week. But google pays for all expenses of project and you can use said project to get a promotion. A good example of this is people using Google servers to analyze all the code on GitHub to patch sec vulnerabilities. Or adding Easter eggs to Google search. There's also one team building a full fledged flight simulator from scratch and google is paying for the space, workshop, computers, and some raw supplies. I don't see what's changed from a 20% project of past.
