How Google Works

Good book if you are looking for this topics

I'm pretty sure my workplace practices some form of at least 90% of the ideas and advice in this book, so this is a bit hard to review given that I didn't really learn much from it, but it has a clear influence on my daily life.

It was still an easy listen and hearing it straight from the horses mouth with some clear examples from Google was interesting.

It was a good and amusing read with some geeky humor interspersed along with raw wisdom.

But like many other books (mostly motivational and self help ones) reader should beware of the survivorship bias! This is how Google works, described as clearly and directly as possible, but this is not necessarily how Google turned into a billion(?) dollar company. Many other dead companies have had few or most of such traits but didn't succeed!

So, my advise: apply with care! :)

A worthwhile book - both entertaining and insightful. If it's an area in which you have interest (business with or management of “smart creatives”) the. I would recommend it. Also, if you're just curious about Google (as the title might reflect), the content will likely be interesting.
