Working at Google
is absolutely amazing. The work environment, vibe and people are great!
(i'll try to think of a better superlative). The food rocks too!
Do you like using Google products?? Google is growing
and their products and services are all based on the talents of
amazing software engineers. As we grow, we need more help!

Why work at Google? The engineers here say because you get to work with the smartest people in the world. Working with smart, passionate people creates an environment where you can really blossom ideas into reality. (so in between having access to the largest data repository in the world and playing ping-pong, you can make things happen!)
Who else works at Google? Guido Van Rossum - Creator of Python Rob Pike, Ken Thompson - founding fathers of UNIX Vint Cerf (!) - who who has an uncanny resemblance to "The Architect" in the Matrix
