    The new movie "The Internship" promotes working and interning at Google. In reality, it's a pretty sweet deal, with Google interns enjoying a variety of perks and earning more than many Americans. As CNET's Kara Tsuboi tell us, this year a record number of applicants made it even tougher to get the top-rated internship.

    Why do people keep pointing out macs? Google is not Microsoft. They don't make windows or windows computers. And the chromebooks they do make are not for their kind of work

    It would've been scary if you'd said it was tougher than getting into an IIT.

    I think people need to understand google is a software and web-based focused company. While apple on the other hand is mainly a hardware focuses company. So I don't understand why people are emphasizing the fact that there were so many MacBooks there.

    What's wrong with that? I don't think even Google claims that Chrome OS is ideal for everybody, including their employees.

    Have to say google pays higher salary than Goldman Sachs in terms of interns, 5600/m vs 5000/m + less hour than Goldman. Google rocks!

    Because macbooks are great for programmers, they're fast reliable, and Mac OSX is built upon Unix, so we can use the pretty interface all day but hop onto the Terminal every once in a while if we chose to.

    Google and Apple are pretty different companies in terms of what they produce. Sure, they compete on Android (and Android wins on innovation), but Google is into SO much other stuff that allows them to be innovative. It seems like a no-brainer that you'd have more interesting stuff coming out of there.
    At the end of the day, Apple is mostly a consumer electronics company, while Google is so much more. But they're both very good at what they do.

  • @s.flanders
    @s.flanders 11 лет назад +1

    Google doesn't really make laptops/computers. Unless you count ones that run Chrome OS, but those are for people who can do everything on the Internet, and I don't think Google employees (especially ones that code) are expected to be able to do that.

  • @choverholt
    @choverholt 11 лет назад +1

    Google is such an innovator. I think that the reason that they pay so much to their interns is because they are trying to build loyalty. The software world is cut throat.

    I'm sure they are free to use whatever machine they want but lets be frank here, Mac are designed for what they do. Most people just don't realize that because they use their Mac as a two thousand dollar facebook and light internet browsing machine. I use mine for music, blogging, light gaming and browsing the internet but for nitty gritty web design, music production, photo and video editing and other things like that, you want a Mac.

    Just because Google is starting up their own operating system doesn't mean that they think it is as refined as their competitors. Chrome OS is new and currently VERY limited and google knows this. Give Chrome OS a chance to grow and become as good as its competitors or wait to see if google kills Chrome OS before making a remark that implies Apple is so much better. Lately google has been innovating a ton and Apple has been doing next to nothing in the past couple years.

  • @CraftyVidProductions
    @CraftyVidProductions 11 лет назад +1

    Google doesn't make PC's and a lot of people at google like using apple products, even iphones as apposed to androids. They let their workers pick what ever they like the most even if it isn't their own product. Which is why I would much rather work at google then at Apple. So I wouldn't say GO APPLE.

    • @ilipan2668
      @ilipan2668 6 лет назад

      Affordable housing doesn't really exist in the Bay Area. Cities like NY, London, Boston, etc. have expensive downtowns but some affordable suburbs. The idea of an affordable suburb doesn't exist anymore the the Bay Area, unless you include the Central Valley (Sacramento, Stockton).
