    Why Google employees should leave before it's too late

    GoogleLogoOnWall.jpgThe recruiters at Binc interviewed current and former Googlers to compile a list of five reason to stay at the company and five reasons to go. At 1,054 words, a Googler would use up all of his 20 percent time reading it. Here's the 100-word version.

    • Why is Google special? 5 reasons:
    • Great perks — gourmet lunches, dinners, spas, daycare, laundry
    • Brilliant minds at work — smart employees, guest speakers
    • Innovative
    • Fun, exciting, and energetic
    • Who doesn't wanna work for #1?
    • 5 reasons why Google employees are starting to leave:
    • Commuting — people aren't as willing to commute as they once were, gas is over $4 dollars a gallon
    • Stock troubles — growth doesn't last forever (YHOO — $108 in 2000 to $4.67 in 2002, Sun — $253.88 in 2000 to $10.36 in 2002)
    • Google employees that joined post-IPO missed out on their big hit
    • Products and services go through a full review process that can take months before the product is released to market
    • Google was the revolution, it's not anymore
