- wyclif 15y agoYes, but that's here on HN, which doesn't correspond to a group of Google engineers.
- jerlam 15y agoI don't think Google's company-wide 10% raise starting in 2011 hurt either. Approval ratings aren't as useful, as say compared to something like the US Presidental approval ratings: unhappy employees can easily leave (clearly evidenced by a few recent high-profile HN posts), so only the happy remain.
- jrockway 15y agoLarry Page is a cool guy and the founder of Google, so it's pretty hard to disapprove. It's his company that he built with his own hands. That outweighs any distaste for the concept of the "social multiplier" or whatever it is people hate him for.
