Google provides servants for employees

谷歌为员工提供佣人
谷歌为员工提供佣人


Amid heated competition for engineers, Google is trying a remarkable new perk: free use of "runners" to clean apartments, take out trash, cook dinner and run other errands, Gawker reported. Google provides the jobs through TaskRabbit, an online service that brokers odd jobs. Recent job listings on the site include "Fold Laundry and Put it Away," "Cook dinner for 2," "assemble four items from Ikea," "dispose of Ikea bed," "Pick up and deliver cake" and "walk a dog." The perk, presumably, only applies to Google workers who live in one of the five major cities TaskRabbit serves, including New York and the San Francisco Bay Area.

据Gawker网站报道,随着工程师争夺战激烈化,谷歌正在尝试为员工提供一种与众不同的新福利,即能清理房间、倒垃圾、做饭和干其它杂活儿的免费“跑腿人员”。谷歌通过在线零散工中介TaskRabbit来提供这些工作。在TaskRabbit上,最近罗列的工作有“整理叠放洗好的衣服”、“做双人餐”、“组合购自宜家的四件家具”、“处理宜家买来的床”、“提取并配送蛋糕”以及“遛狗”。但是员工只有住在TaskRabbit服务覆盖的五个大城市之一才能享受到这项福利,比如纽约、旧金山湾区。
