Why Google's Campus Feels Like a College You Never Have to Leave

Steve Ispas visits the Googleplex — the sprawling headquarters of Google in Mountain View, California — and takes you on a tour of the second largest company in the world by market cap, valued at over $4 trillion. Unlike Apple's single iconic spaceship building, Google's campus spans over 100 buildings, and it shows.


From a penny-covered bear sculpture and Burning Man artwork to Android statues, a public bike trail, and a Google Visitor Experience hosted by the charming Josh, Steve explores what makes this place truly unique. He chats with a Google product manager who loves her job, learns that YouTube has been part of Google for 20 years, and checks out the famous Google Cafe that recently opened to the public.


And just when you think the tour is over — Steve films the Google toilet. Heated seats, multiple wash functions, and temperature controls. Yes, really.


The big takeaway? Google has clearly designed its campus to feel like a college campus, keeping that exciting, energetic environment alive for employees long after graduation day.
