Executive Summary:
\nYahoo: good
\nGoogle: bad
\nI’ve read a few of the “controversial” excerpts from the blog of Mark Jen<\/a>, the person who left Microsoft to take a job at Google and was fired after less than a month of employment – and as a former HR person, I have NO idea what got his boss’s knickers in a twist.<\/p>


\nExample (direct quote):
\n…which leads me to one of google’s most valuable competitive advantages: the ability to get features out the door extremely quickly. this is by far one of the most striking contrasts between google and microsoft<\/i>.
\nWow, that’s harsh. Insubordinate. Boyoboy, I’d sure fire anyone who badmouthed MY company in that way.
\nCompare and contrast to Jeremy Zawodny<\/a> and his civilized chats about the blogosphere with his boss at Yahoo.
\nAnd I was stupid enough to think that Google were a bunch of good guys. How could I be SO DUMB?! After all, didn’t its founders, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, go to India on a “hiring spree” last October<\/a>?
\nThey’d better watch themselves if they blog in Bangalore.
\nWonder if Page and Brin or their uptight middle managers know Hindi?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
