The times I've visited Apple or Facebook, there's always one if not several security guards watching each person badge in, to ensure you don't tailgate. Facebook's main building even has those optical turnstiles, to make it harder (as if the guards weren't imposing enough).
Probably the smaller buildings are much easier to tailgate? Or maybe Facebook and Apple just don't represent the norm in the valley.
- ryandrake 9y agoApple (maybe FB too, I have no direct knowledge) is an extreme case where they take physical security extremely seriously. From day one employees are instructed that everyone badges in, even if it’s a whole group of employees entering who all know each other. You badge even while someone is holding the door for you. If you see someone behind you who forgot to badge you stop them: even if they’re the Senior VP, doesn’t matter.
