How the Googleplex Works

谷歌员工津贴  
Google Employee **Perks**

Many tech industry companies in Silicon Valley offer a range of perks and benefits to attract and keep employees. Several offer **on-site benefits**, **which have the added bonus of keeping the employee workforce in the office more often**. Give employees enough reasons to stick around and you’ll likely see productivity go up. Why head home when everything you need is at work?  
硅谷的许多科技行业公司提供一系列额外津贴和福利来吸引和留住员工。有几个提供现场福利，这些额外福利让员工更愿意在办公室工作。让员工足够的理由继续工作下去，你可能会看到生产力上升。你的办公室有你想要的一切，为什么要回家？  
With that in mind, here’s a short list of the perks Google employees get when they sign on at the Googleplex:  
考虑到这一点，这里列出了谷歌员工在Googleplex登录时获得的额外优惠：  
**If an employee’s bangs are getting in the way during a furious coding session, he or she can schedule an on-site现场 haircut free of charge.**  
如果员工的刘海太长会阻碍编程，公司会为其安排免费剪发。

To work off all those calories, employees can head over to a gym filled with equipment. For the aquatically-inclined, Google also provides swim-in-place swimming pools. These pools are narrow and not very long. Electric water pumps provide a strong current that flows in one direction. Employees swim against the current, staying in place within these small pools. Lifeguards are on duty to keep employees safe.  
为了减肥，员工可以去一个装满设备的健身房锻炼。对于想游泳的员工，谷歌还提供游泳池。这些游泳池很窄而且不是很长。电动水泵提供沿一个方向流动的水流。员工朝水流反方向游泳，在这些小游泳池内停留。救生员有责任保证员工的安全。  
Employees can play against each other in a quick game of ping pong, **billiards or foosball** – you can find game tables in several of the buildings on campus. There are also video games for employees who prefer to let their thumbs do all the work.  
员工们可以在一场乒乓球、台球或桌上足球的快速比赛中互相较量——你可以在公司的几个建筑物中找到游戏桌。对于那些喜欢让大拇指完成所有工作的员工，也有视频游戏提供给他们。  
If an employee spills some of that fancy juice on his or her clothes, all is not lost. **Google has laundry facilities available to employees on site**. The company even offers dry cleaning services. **It’s not unusual for Google employees to bring clothes in over the weekend to do laundry at the Googleplex**.  
如果一名员工将一些花哨的果汁洒在他或她的衣服上，他个人不会有任何损失。谷歌为员工提供洗衣设施。该公司甚至提供干洗服务。谷歌员工周末携带衣服在Googleplex洗衣服并不罕见。

Google’s healthcare plan includes on-site medical staff. If an employee suffers an injury or feels ill while at work, he or she can make an appointment with a doctor at the Googleplex. Even with all the benefits and perks at the Googleplex, work can become stressful. Fortunately for Google employees, they can take advantage of a **subsidized massage program**. For a small fee, the employee can receive a massage from a licensed therapist in a private room. In fact, Google’s massage rooms and bathrooms are some of the only areas in the Googleplex that have **opaque walls**.  
谷歌的医疗保健计划包括现场医务人员。如果员工在工作中受伤或感到不适，他或她可以在Googleplex与医生预约。即使拥有Googleplex的所有好处和额外津贴，但工作也是紧张的。幸运的是，对于谷歌员工，他们可以利用补贴享受按摩。只需支付少量费用，员工就可以在私人房间内获得持牌治疗师的按摩服务。事实上，谷歌的按摩室和浴室是Googleplex中唯一具有不透明墙壁的区域。  
Another famous benefit of working at Google is the 20 percent time program. Google allows its employees to use up to 20 percent of their work week at Google to pursue special projects. That means for every standard work week, employees can take a full day to work on a project unrelated to their normal workload. Google claims that many of their products in Google Labs started out as pet projects in the 20 percent time program.  
在谷歌工作的另一个著名好处是20％的时间计划。 谷歌允许其员工在谷歌工作周中使用高达20％的工作时间来进行特殊项目。这意味着对于每个标准工作周，员工可以花一整天的时间来处理与其正常工作无关的项目。谷歌称，谷歌实验室的许多产品都是在20％的时间计划中作为宠物项目开设的。

    Many tech industry companies in Silicon Valley offer a range of perks and benefits to attract and keep employees. Several offer on-site benefits, which have the added bonus of keeping the employee workforce in the office more often. Give employees enough reasons to stick around and you'll likely see productivity go up. Why head home when everything you need is at work? 
    
    With that in mind, here's a short list of the perks Google employees get when they sign on at the Googleplex:
