What a beautiful office you guys have. Everything seems super cozy and chill, lovely.
It’s not bad huh!
This didn't age well.
Dream office = free breakfast + free lunch + free snacks + napping pods + table tennis + free gym + nice view + cool plants! love it
True that - I'm definitely super grateful
Aaaannnndddd.....then LAID OFF!!!!!
If everything is free what do they need their salary for ?
@@akramchraibi7751 They don't....t 💩💩💩 canned.
OMG the office is amazing!!! The food options look so good too, I'm jealous!!
Any video with a clip of that scene of the office gets an automatic like haha. Amazing video Charles! The content is only getting better and better
Appreciate the love my dude 🙏
Lovely tour of the office! Those meals looked incredible!
Thanks Shaun - certainly a great perk of the job!
@@CharlesKerr And in 2023....barista at Starbucks. Good luck in the real world.
I ll join this office next year for sure.
Fellow small CZcamsr and tech friend !! What a great video Charles and so jealous of your office haha - new subbie! 😄
Woohoo, thanks for the love 🙏
A cool look behind the scenes!
Thanks man 🙏
Kinda sad since I had the trip booked to visit the London office, but COVID cancelled the trip for me. Looking forward to the visit soon. Cheer from the ZRHF :)
Awesome video, love to see the channel grow! :)
Working hard to work at Google as a Data Scientist ;)
Thank you - you totally got this, if you want a hand with the application drop me a DM on Twitter!
Very nice office indeed! Just curious, are there any core software development done in London office? Or London office is only for external supporting tasks and sales only?
I love the google office features. Wish one day I can work there. It might be not possible. But love to wish
Amazing 😍
Thanks 🤗
love the video! do you know if google are doing any insight days for students anytime soon? :)
Thanks so much - I'm not sure exactly, your college/school will know best or there might be more here: careers.google.com/students/
was there a couple days ago, was super fun!
It's a great place to work!
@@CharlesKerrno offense but I hope this video gets you fired. You sleep at work and get paid for it.
Hey there,I’ve just failed my employment assessment test(I’ve only got 55 percent for it ,as a new requirement is 85 to get a job as a translator on Google/ and utube;in 5 min I had to listen to about 25 quite long audios without any chance of repeating those,as the questions that I would get were really what you won’t expect of getting at all,while 5 years ago it was more about the quality rather then speed…but I am glad that your day looks so well-organised and stress free…Looking forward to see what’s the average translator/or interpreter day is like for those who work remotely for Google and is it worth it trying again?
Just tell them you're a bisexual millennial white man and they'll hire you.
Great video my friend, what a lovely person you are!! 😀
Did your each day go like this?
What are your working hours?
Thank you Haris - a lovely comment.
Honestly each day varies quite a lot, but generally a mix of meals, meetings and meet-ups aha!
Working hours are kind of standard 9-5 (but there's variation when I come in and out and some days I might finish at say 4 to go to the office gym) and Mon/Fri are WFH.
What should I do to work for google
Great video! Is the fire alarm thing a regular part of Google London? I had my phone screen interview with a software engineer from London and suddenly the fire alarm started blaring xD
Aha damn - I think it happens regularly at the same time each week!
Hello. I am currently having problems with my CZcams account. The videos and content in my account is not refreshing and all my watch history is outdated. How do I get the latest trending videos on CZcams such as technology, entertainment, fashion, gaming, business etc. Can you confirm if my account has been hacked or if my codes have been swapped?
Hey Charles, I'm a project manager in the NHS and a CZcams Creator. What would it take to join Google London as a program manager?
Hey Harbir - welcome to the channel, your press-up channel looks super impressive!
I don't know about the program manager role in particular, but I do know that Google/CZcams have had a growing health focus, so your background could fit in really well. DM me if there's any roles you're looking at in particular and I'll see if I can help more.
😍😍
Were u impacted by layoffs?
Isko bolte h thug life 😂
How long do you commute to work?
Usually about a 25min commute!
Hii you video is really nice I am looking for some internship in google based in UK is there any opportunity for some one who major is not science
There's a tonne of internship opportunities in business and technical roles, I think it's Jan and June when the internships often start, checkout careers.google.com and filter by internships for more insight!
5 apples, Easy question
Have you been fired in the layoffs
... No wonder why layoffs were inevitable.
looking forward to see your laid off video.
I swear if it weren't for all the bogus meetings and teleconferences, where nothing of real value is ever done, actual quantifiable "work" would be less than 2 hours.
The hardest thing he did was type on a laptop that he probably owns himself.
Is it free food?
Yup - everything!
Living the dream...
Aha I promise not everyday is like this!
@@CharlesKerr I dare say your worst day is better than my best, lol
Did u pay for the breakfast ?
Nope it's all free!
1:15 and 1:26 repetition?
wooops, nice one you caught a small editing mistake!
In google office using macbook😂
So before you were just laid off, did you ever do any actual work?
Lots of meeting so everyone could pad out their schedule. Meeting where nothing actionable that helped the company make revenue was ever resolved.
I guess too many shareholders saw all these videos and decided you were a big waste of resources.
Interesting how he doesn't reply to these types of comments.
United Kingdom Of Great Britain 🇬🇧 London is the best city in the world, King's Cross is the best place for business growth forever.❤
Kings Cross is such a lush area of London!
People are seeing only food 😂
to be fair - the food is great!

But aren't Google employees quit every 1.1 year on average
I can see why Google fired 12,000 people.
Wow so much hate on the comment section. If you feel what he did is easy. Than try to apply google yourself and get the work. I know people work only 1 h a day and earn million a month even more with more benefit. You can say they just get lucky, but have you try find out what they do and how they get that work? Its either the short hour work achieve so much result as it brain intensive work or, he/she is the family of the stock holder
Wow...I hope Elon Musk buys Google

Following the ownership change at Twitter, people are looking at these 'day in the life of a [insert big tech company] employee' videos, with a fresh pair of eyes. What some people are seeing is a culture of unskilled, work-shy, spoiled, petulant, wokeists who have no clue about what a day of REAL work looks like. Some people see these kinds of videos as being people like you essentially just rubbing other people's noses in it. I would worry that you are ultimately making yourself unemployable by posting this kind of content. I have two questions for you? One: Do you think that you are bringing good value to your employer or the marketplace more generally? Two: Would you personally employ somebody to hang around gyms, sipping soy lattes and treating the place like a holiday camp?
Bet you're fun at parties
Valid questions
@@CharlesKerris work suppose to be a party?
Man you work for a really great company, but the office seems like a waste of time. You’ve got all these distractions and it takes so much time to get there.
I definitely think having the ability to be able to decide when to work from home is something I’d like for sure, but as far as offices go all the niceties and perks make it an enjoyable place to be vs say generic cubicles! Plus the journey time does massively depend on where you live (there’s like 5 offices in London for example)
Congratulations for making it into google...i wish i could follow you on social media
You can! @thecharleskerr
@@CharlesKerr teah thanks brother.check linked in ❤
WORKING employees thats what more an office needs.
This is absurd, no wonder your on the unemployment line.
in a near 6 min video, you posted just over 1 minute of working time, yeah lets wait for your 'i got laid off' video
The worst part is he genuinely believes he deserves all these luxuries. These aren't "perks" as he calls it, this is all inclusive luxury resort treatment. All that's missing is the pool.
There’s a pool too!
@@CharlesKerr when is your ‘made redundant’ video coming ?
@@Paul-km9ox Paul at what point in your life did you decide to be hurtful?
Like I'm sure your parents raised you to be a good, kind-hearted person on this earth and comments like this (no matter my own circumstances) can really hurt.
With so much divide and hate in the world as it is, why not try being a little kinder and bring joy to someone's day instead?
Spread love not hate Paul, you'll feel better for it ♥️
@@Paul-km9ox I agree with you Paul, with jobs like this who needs vacations.
