I came across Yi-fang‘s post named “Google Inc.- The Ideal Work Place” which focus on the importance of the work places’ environment.

Yi-fang mentioned in her blog that we have learned about the company called Zappos which treat their stuff like family members. Zappos’ CEO does not have his own office and just work near their employees everyday. What Google does is more humanized, they provide their employees with slides, outdoor activity areas, nap pods, and much more. If I was one of their stuff, I have to say this kind of organizational culture will make me never to consider about job-hopping. 

What I am considering is the reason why Google and Zappos are famous for their organizational culture is that there are still only a few firms work like that. The environment of Google could not be copied easily because that will cause a huge amount of cost. The firm should have enough economic power to build the facilities and be attractive enough to their stuff to work for them even there are on strict rules. Zappos is an example for the similar organizational culture but a simpler one. Their operators need to work in a relaxing environment which could keep them a positive mood. Because they are key elements of the quantity of after-sale. But the others may do not need to be so relaxed during the work-time. I believe the efficiency could be developed if the environment was more strict. Be strict do not means worse treating.
