In July 2013, Facebook was 1, 2 billion users, and the site creator Mark Zuckerberg is the youngest billionaire in the world. If you want to see how the staff and rest of the largest social network in the world, I ask for cat. During a trip to Silicon Valley, I was able to get to the office Facebook. Calling this office do not dare. Rather, a small closed city that lives by its own laws and regulations. Tsekerbergu able to build not only the largest social network, but also real communism in the city. Terms Facebook employee pleasant surprise, although silicone valley is quite normal. No domestic issues should not prevent a person to do. The office looks more like some kind of resort, where everything is included. For employees with everything from a gym and finishing hall of slot machines. It is not clear how in such an atmosphere can work)
Outside office unremarkable. Conventional low-rise office buildings, people are not even there are no signs. Previously, there was the office of SUN and other IT-companies. Here is the entrance through which the work goes on Mark Zuckerberg.
But if you go inside, everything changes!
Inside a real city with cycle paths, recreation areas, bridges and even wild foxes.
