ACTIVITY # 21

Research

Select an organization of your choice and determine how


management motivates its employees to perform. What do you think
is the most relevant means of maximizing employee performance in
this organization?

As a student in this time of pandemic Google is my best friend. I


can rely on it in times of confusion. It is their when I need to
gain new information. Here are some of the perks that come with
the job:

Google offers free food, with various dining halls at the


Googleplex catered to all kinds of cuisine. On a given day, there
are options ranging from pasta to fresh sushi rolls, sandwiches,
salads, and other kinds of Asian cuisine. There are even cafes at
Google that allow employees to get a free coffee pick-me-up from
a local third-wave cafe, on campus. Google offers on-site
physicians, nurses, medical services, and health care coverage to
keep its employees happy and healthy. Googlers can travel without
worries; employees are covered with travel insurance and
emergency assistance on both personal and work-related vacations.
Google offers its employees one of the most innovative work
environment cultures. Google cares so much about innovation, that
one of its principles encourages Google employees to spend 20% of
their time pursuing innovative ideas about which they are
passionate. Products and applications, such as Google News,
Google Alerts, and Google Maps Street View, have been born from
this principle. Google offers shuttle services to employees who
work out of its Googleplex so they can avoid long wait times in
traffic and even the stress of driving to work. Every morning,
big black buses equipped with WiFi pick up employees to get to
the office. Google also offers some of the best paid parental
leave for new parents. Its employees have paid leave up to 18
weeks if the father is the primary caregiver, or seven weeks
otherwise. Mothers are still entitled to 22 weeks of maternity
leave. Google cares so much about new parents that it offers
parents one-on-one consultations to figure out their scheduling
for daycare options, money to spend on baby bonding time, as well
as four child care centers on one of its campuses. Google also
offers a Global Education Leave program, which enables employees
to take a leave of absence to pursue further education. All of
this education is covered by Google. Since Google is one of the
most well-known technology companies in the world, it offers
employees better job prospects should they decide to leave the
Googleplex. It also offers growth within the company, whether it
be for middle management or higher-level management
opportunities. Working at Google provides employees with a sense
of contributing to the worldwide population. Google employees
positively impact society with the applications and technology on
which they are working. These technologies would surely benefit
the human race; for example, self-driving cars could enable its
passengers to catch up on sleep during their commutes. Its
accident rate is uncanny, with just a handful of accidents in the
more than 20 million miles driven since January 2020, many of
which were determined to be caused by human error. Google only
looks for the best and brightest minds, and employees are always
exposed to other amazing employees and intelligent thinkers.
Being around other intelligent thinkers allows for a creative
work environment, collaboration, and disruptive innovation. To
help with morale, employees are free to bring their pets to work.
Some Googlers describe that being able to bring their pets to
work keeps their energy levels up, as well as bringing joy to
other employees.

Although there are highly intelligent employees at Google, there


is no rocket science that goes into Google offering one of the
best work environments. Google simply treats people with respect
and supports its employees' creative and innovative endeavors.
