I find this interesting that they are using Google Sheets instead of Excel.
The one big area where Google Docs is superior to Microsoft, is having a bunch of people be able to edit a single document.
- thaumasiotes 6y agoI don't find it interesting at all. It just means they're smarter than the Google employees who tried to organize themselves using Google docs. If you want to organize around a project your employer wouldn't like, use tools your employer doesn't provide.
- _jal 6y agoI've always wondered how this works out for people at Linkedin. (I haven't ever gotten a job via LI, but know many who have.)
- mav3rick 6y agoAt Google, sharing salaries is officially supported and the spreadsheet is linked to by HR. So Google employees actually fought for and started this trend, they were way ahead of everyone else.
- fred_is_fred 6y agoOffice365 offers this and it works fairly well from what I've seen.
