- Abstract / Summary
- Google’s high growth rate is creating new HR challenges for the company. Google has built a culture where a well-chosen elite accommodates flexibility, shifting roles and, above all else, urgency. As Google grows in size and strength, it is a challenge to maintain the pace of innovation and convey a sense of empowerment to Google’s engineers and product managers. There is a risk of the organisation losing its dynamism and becoming more bureaucratic. The case discusses Google’s recruitment process, its efforts to entice the best talent in the industry, its unique work culture and its efforts to maintain the pace of innovation. Can the fast growing company also develop an inventive streak in human resources as it competes for an increasingly tight supply of search-programming talent?
