In response to Caitlin’s blog post, it is evident that Google has become a very successful company throughout the decade. While it is fair to note that much of Google’s acclaimed success is due to its strong organizational culture!

As mentioned by Caitlin, the skill of an individual is valued higher than past experience. Additionally, the workforce of Google is comprised of a huge array of diverse backgrounds, resulting in greater room for creativity and innovation.

In addition, employees of Google enjoy lavish fringe benefits such as recreational activities at the job site, free food and drinks, as well as a vibrant and fun workplace. This then ensures that employees do feel comfortable and allows them to get their creative juices going. Thus, Caitlin was right to say that creating a positive and fun work environment and culture does play a large role in job satisfaction and ultimately leads to how effective and profitable the company may be. Hence maintaining a strong organizational culture where employees wholeheartedly believe in the company’s values will definitely lead to success!
