Google, which is regarded as the best workplace in the world, puts lots of effort on “creating a workplace people never want to leave”. For example, it creates a cozy environment for people to work in by providing many different places within the company such as gyms, micro kitchen. Besides, the company designs spaces with different scales that allows employees to design their own spaces. All these efforts aim at making employees feel more comfortable with their working environment.

Why is it so important for employees to feel good? Here’s what I think.

Good employee’ performance leads to more consumers. As many businesses strive to figure out ways to learn more about their consumers in order to gain more profit, they often forget the fact that it is employees who create the products that customers consume.

Employee is actually the other crowd that businesses should pay equal attention to. Today, however, there are still some companies don’t aware of that, and think that the money they saved from building a good working environment can help maximize their profit.

As employees have more rights than ever today, businesses have to realize that figure out appropriate ways to maximize their human resource such as providing good working environment is a very important thing to do to make the businesses more profitable; and they should.
