Google: Ten Golden Rules - Issues 2006 - MSNBC.com
If you ever wanted to glimpse inside and see what makes a company like Google tick ... well, they're hanging it all out there for you. The short list (read the article for full details):
- Hire by committee
- Cater to their every need
- Pack them in
- Make coordination easy
- Eat your own dog food
- Encourage creativity
- Strive to reach consensus
- Don't be evil
- Data drive decisions
- Communicate effectively
A lot of companies do several of of these, and some are almost counter-intuitive to the creative process (strive to reach consensus?), but the article (ok, ok, recruiting advertisement) does a great job of conveying what Google thinks is setting them apart from the competition.
