Last week I had the pleasure of visiting the the Google Office in Zurich and see in loco one of the most extravagant workplaces I’ve ever seen.
Throughout the building, offices are full of light from the big windows. There are a couple of kitchens completely filled with ice-creams, coffee, fruit and all you will ever need to consume while at work.
Then you have the well known extravagant features including a slider, a games rooms (wii, xbox and guitar here were all there), a massage room and a relaxation room full of aquariums. They make it for a very interesting visit but I can help to wonder if I would ever use them during a the day at work. I had lunch at the restaurant. Everything from the starters to the dessert was very good and I only started to imagine how healthy it would be to eat there day after day.
Taking photos is not allowed so the ones you see below were found on Picasa:
Bah… you didn’t publish this picture.

The one playing is Portuguese… from Porto.
A dream that comes true (for some people)..
