Google is bogged down in red tape

Former worker warns company is slowly ceasing to function

Ex-Google employee. Praveen Seshadri as warned that the company is getting so bogged down in bureaucratic processes that it can’t do anything without orders – signed in triplicate, sent in, sent back, queried, lost, found, subjected to public inquiry, lost again, and finally buried in soft peat for three months and recycled as firelighters.

Seshadri recently quit and detailed the problems he saw during his time at the company. Seshadri says Google is "trapped in a maze of approvals, launch processes, legal reviews, performance reviews, exec reviews," and other bureaucratic processes, and while the employees are capable, they "get very little done quarter over quarter, year over year."
