I'm happy with 40hrs with some days remote and I don't think I could switch to googles approach.
- eitally 8y agoBut you have no idea that you wouldn't be able to continue with your 40hrs and some days remote if you had a job at Google. There are lots of people who have a positive work/life balance at Google. Some take advantage of some perks, some others, and some don't use very many at all, but the fact is that there are many perks available catering to a huge spectrum of desires, whether that means fitness, food, social, cultural, technology, or financial. Just because Google offers onsite laundry and serves three meals a day doesn't mean employees have to participate. But having them makes it a more appealing place to a broader range of potential candidates, and a friendlier place for employees, too.
