There has been a recent post detailing the work experience at Google and compare it with Microsoft. The details can be found in the link at bottom of this post. However, below is my personal comments on the scenario.
Any company whether it is Google or Microsoft pays you to do the job and give benefits to keep you happy so that you can work more.
Now, I can understand that Googles Management wants their employees to be on job for as long as they can because their small requirements like laundry, daycare, etc is taken care off. I think it is good management and perfect example how to get most of your employees.
No one is to be blamed here. Whichever company it is, PROFIT is their BOTTOMLINE and they will do whatever needed to keep it growing. If you have complains about the job you have then why give a damn, work for yourself and show you got guts to do so otherwise stop whinning and get back to work.
