Who We are
My Name is Mark and I am the owner of SEO-BeastMode
I am a former Google employee and was on the SE X team. I learned my stuff from the ones that built the machine and now I am here to share it with You!
Should you have any questions after reading through this site, you can send me a direct gmail to seobeastmodeusa@gmail.com or just pick up the phone and call me at (347) 947-8945
With the expertise and work drive of my team we will get you the best results possible.
Our HQ now is in N.Y.C. and all the work is done from the U.S.A.
My Team consists of 2 more former Googlers like myself and 5 hand picked genius coders that work really hard.
My Time at Google, Overall, Google is an incredible company to work for and learn from. You work alongside the brightest, and have the opportunity to learn and grow in a highly stimulating and creative environment. You can, however, feel like a hamster in a wheel, and like trying your hand at other roles, or looking to move up, can feel nearly impossible. The perks and co-workers make the job amazing. The hardest part is that you're stuck in such a specific niche that can feel really boring, and under challenging after a while.
The Pros
1) Everyone is super smart
2) 18 different cafes
3) Free Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner
4) The food is gourmet quality (e.g. omelet bar, chefs that make custom sandwiches for you, sashimi, free drinks 24/7, free snacks of all sorts 24/7.
5) The 7 person conference bicycles
6) Every Friday, Larry, Sergei, or Eric takes questions from us (in person), and we get free beer
The Cons
Management institute is awful. A typical manager has 50-100 employees, so even if they meet with their reports once a month for 30 minutes, that's about 2 weeks worth of almost constant 1:1s per month (allowing just a bit of time for stretching in between :-)). That's not a lot of time for interaction. As a result, managers aren't empowered to participate in technical decision, they don't have very much vote in performance reviews (these are done by committee), and not even hiring (which is also done by committee). I've asked older Googlers what the managers did there, and they universally said "I don't know". Almost all managerial decisions that I witnessed at Google (mostly around resourcing the new projects) were not great, and the only way I could explain them was by some sort of internal political struggles between different players in the management game. The good thing was that, as I said above, they don't have very much role in day to day operations of the company. But if you LIKE being a technical manager, if that's how you see your career, Google is definitely not for you.
And that is exactly why I left to start SEO-BeastMode
