Former Employees of Google

Where are they?

[JudgeJeffries]

Do any former employees of Google post here and if so who are they, and if not where are they?

[kovacs]

They're in ex-employee protection programs... once in, never out.

Just like the Mafia -- they will throw you in the ocean with "Cementa Shoes" if you ever quit. <G>

Honestly I think they all retain their jobs - they would be stupid to leave (unless of course Yahoo was trying to recruit them!)...

[atadams]

They exist. They even have their own web page [oompa-loompas.net].

[Giacomo]

Jady, that's "cemento" actually. :)

atadams,

thanks for a GREAT kickoff to my morn! (six hours behind the posting clock here>

That website is too kewl!

[sem4u]

[google.co.uk...]

[novice]

[Shak]

It gets worse for Deployment Engineer openings...
[google.com...]

It states: "Must have current government top security clearance (TS/SI)."

[JudgeJeffries]

Interesting!
Could the upcoming hostilities have anything to do with the delay in the dance.

Hi all, got the enviable job of watching for the dreaded (dare I mention it on this thread?) update from my Boss and was so amused by the "ex google employees" website, I just had to join the forum to congratulate atadams - wonderful! Hope there are a few more jokers out there to keep me happy during the vigil.
:)

[atadams]

Glad you liked it. Willy Wonka was a role model.

Although not a true former employee, this is close:

How to Become an Ex-"Google Answers" Researcher [infotoday.com]

[JudgeJeffries]

I'm just surprised that none of the technical crew have popped up with a SEO company which no doubt would receive a great deal of interest. My money would be on them at least in the short term.

[ninross]

Craig - yes, having trawled through the 675 message on THE thread I am beginning to agree, but, hey I only have to watch for a couple more hours until my boss is back. The way things are dragging on "young googler" (top left) on sem4u's link will be old enough to join in!
:)

Mike, nice article :)

Don't know of many former employees of Google, but I'd be curious to hear about former employees of search engines in general. Just ran across a mention of EDGAR IQ, which was formed by four ex-WiseNut employees, for example. And Matt Wells used to be at InfoSeek, right? Any other people doing interesting things?
