Perks @ the Atlanta Google office

I’m considering taking a job at the Atlanta Google office. All the famous perks at Google are available at the mothership back in Mountain View but which of these perks are available in the Google Atlanta office? I know we get food, but what about others such as gym, haircut, laundry service, massages, etc? Would feel cheated if at least a few of these others weren’t available because it’s part of the dream for working at Google. Before people start saying stuff like you can afford those things on your google salary. Yes I can but I’m going for the full legendary Google experience here.

Massages, haircuts, laundry aren't free btw.

Microsoft BigTrunk Jun 17, 2019

Whao. Really? My friends at Google keep telling me those are free. Also they've said day care is free....

Microsoft 3 & out OP Jun 17, 2019

Yeah I thought they were free as well until recently. Was it always charged or a recent change? Either way, are they available as a service in Atlanta for the convenience?

How many haircuts do you want anyway 😂

Microsoft 3 & out OP Jun 17, 2019

I just like the idea of stepping away for 15 min and getting a haircut instead of specifically going to a hair salon on the weekend or something. I know, it’s a 1st world problem.

And then you would have to go back home for a shower anyway. Of course I get it though. We always desire for things that we might get

What role

Why don't you ask the recruiter you working with? It is a legitimate question that shows where you interests are...

Microsoft 3 & out OP Jun 17, 2019

He did list a few but I think they were more generic to overall Google but not specific to Atlanta. Not big enough of a deal to bring it up to the recruiter. Figured blinders here would rise up to the inquiry.

Is it a sales & professional services office. Do they have software development?

If you want the "full legendary Google experience", you should move to MTV.

Microsoft 3 & out OP Jun 17, 2019

Maybe one day but for now I’m rooted in the ATL

Out of curiosity, what teams do they have at Atlanta?

Google chenku Jun 18, 2019

MTV is actually the worst campus. I liked all the other ones I've been to more.

Microsoft 3 & out OP Jun 18, 2019

Why is it the worst? Overcrowded?

Do you have an offer already? What’s the role/comp? I didn’t know G was hiring engineers in ATL. Some Atlanta business news site has reported Google is looking to lease something like 200k sqft at the top of a new tower that’s under construction in midtown, so the office should be nice and new at least.
