Small side comment: Google is just about the least affirming place I've worked. I've never been lauded for doing anything "clever", since (I assume), that should be taken as a matter of course.
One place I worked at my boss would occasionally buy candy and drop it off at our desk (psuedo-connected to hitting milestones). I'm not sure if I was being rewarded for mediocrity or some-such, and I imagine that it would vary from person to person.
- tezza 18y agoHi Litewulf, Thanks for the insider view. My previous post was wondering whether Google is trying to set the entry bar so very high in order to attract some talent that would otherwise go to Goldmans, Bain. Google need not exploit them, rather hire them in the first place. -- To your point about affirmation... the non-Googles are accused of not giving any affirmation but the 'reward' of climbing the ladder to become one of the money-earning Partners. On the outside that may seem cruel, but for the successful they must feel rewarded adequately.
