Year after year the Googlegeist survey finds that one of the things Googlers most enjoy about working at Google is their fellow employees

Google has an abundance of money and an abundance of applicants who would like to work there. Companies with fewer applicants per position or lower salaries relative to the industry average may need to be more open to false positives if they want to be able to hire anyone at all. Smaller companies also have the advantage that they can usually fire people more easily than larger companies, which helps lower the cost of false positives for them.
- hueving 8y ago>Year after year the Googlegeist survey finds that one of the things Googlers most enjoy about working at Google is their fellow employees Hiring has very little to do with that. Perf review, feedback mechanisms, and work environment are orders of magnitude more critical to that. I've worked two startups with completely different hiring processes from Google and the other employees were amazing to work with there too. The key is feedback to correct issues and a quick PIP/fire process for folks not cutting it.
