Google's Internal Company Goals

Posted by ryuzaki0 on Friday October 27, 2006 @01:51AM from the inside-the-mind-of-a-goog dept.

Rockgod writes to mention a Google Blogoscoped article about an internal company paper. The paper details Google's big goals and directions for 2006. From the article: "The list included several items, for example: Google wants to have an improved infrastructure to make their engineers more productive. This includes allowing employees to have a universal search tool "containing all public Google information searched on all Google searches." Google also wants to build 10MW of green power to be on track to be carbon neutral. (They also want to reduce "Borg disk waste" by 50%... hmmm, Borg?)

If you'd bothered to read their IPO or other documents, you'd know that common shareholders have nearly no control over the company due to the voting structure the owners set up.

They note that their policies may not maximize profit. Their policies are set based on doing what's right, as deemed by the founders.

Maybe you should sell your shares.
