What Google’s Open Communication Culture Is Really Like

When I started at Google in 2002, there were about 500 employees. When I left nine years later, there were over 50,000. For all that time, I marveled at the relative cohesion of company culture–the values that Google successfully conveyed to tens of thousands of employees across the world. Today Google has about 75,000 people on the payroll. The situation that exploded a few weeks ago–with former employee James Damore’s contentious memo causing internal and public fallout–makes me wonder if this is the breaking point for Google’s unique ethos of open communication.
