Work-life balance is for pussies
Now this is ridiculous. Fortune Magazine lists Yahoo and Microsoft in its list of "100 Best Companies to Work For". But no Google. Do the 18 massage therapists at the Googleplex count for nothing? Even more ludicrous: Fortune assigns weighting to work-life balance, a measure by which Google presumably scores poorly. As if anyone cares about balance in an up market. I always thought, in Silicon Valley, work-life balance was a polite term for unemployment.
