Oh gods, I _wish_ Google was soulless. One of the things that bothered me most when working there was that there was an actual _community_ of the employees, a pretty well organized one, including quite effective mutual help with various things, many kinds of activism, and, well, just fun for many people. It was heart-wrenching, seeing that such a self-organized (almost exclusively) community can actually work well and having this one as the best example -- one, that by it's very nature is twisted to serve a corporation, and what a corporation at that...

Not even the main reason why I left, but it bothered me quite a bit.
