Google is definitely into experimentation, green practices, and employee support. I saw people taking their dogs into their office (no cats!), and running them on the green spaces between buildings. I saw people dropping off their cleaning, doing laundry, exercising, playing pool, working alone and in groups. On their large campus (including a number of old Silicon Graphics buildings), Google installed a number of soloar panels which creates enough power to support 1000 California homes and is the largest corporate installation in the US. Above is picture labelling their hydroponic garden experiment, overseen by the culinary staff, which grows many herbs, lettuces, etc. The large pumpkins were missing and one can only guess what happened to them with Hallowe’en coming up! I asked one of the chefs if he had fun, and he replied, “It’s like winning the chef lotto”!
