For me, it is always interesting reading about the culture and working environment at those companies that are perceived by the wider world as a “cool” place to work. In relation to my working life, 2 of the most “cool” are Microsoft and Google.

The cultures facinate me to some extent. What are they doing that makes them so cool? Well I think they are not much different to a small company looking after the people that work for them in a way that meets eveyone’s needs, just on a much larger scale.

An interesting blog post on leaving Google to rejoin Microsoft gives one view on what works at both Microsoft and Google.
