The 3rd day
Hey everyone, today was another great day. This day was a much longer day then yesterday because we had a lot of things planned today. The first stop was at a start up company called progressly they had two offices close to each other but it was good walk to get to their second office. When we got their they all greeted us by shaking their hands and introducing themselves and handing business cards to connect with them. there was about 20 people in each office they also have another location in Mexico. Progessly has worked a lot with the big oil companies by using a platform that connects with employees. The Next company that we visited was Facebook. the inside of the campus looked like a small town it had a lot of food places, a bike shop, a swag store, a bar, and ect. The only thing that was missing was a place to sleep. We toured around their for a bit and asked any questions we had. We went to a BBQ place in the middle of the Facebook campus and it was really good BBQ and we also got some ice cream after. we then continued our tour by visiting the work places inside the building. We also learned that Mark Zuckerberg would take time out of his day and do a Q&A for the workers on a jumbo torn. They also had hackathons at a certain area of the campus. The last company we visited was Google. We took a tour around the campus and asked any questions we had and we also learned from both Facebook and Google give the freedom to let their employees work from anywhere and create their own schedule just as long as they complete the work that they need to do. At the end of the day we had dinner with Alumni from Curry College and got to talk to them about their work experiences after they graduated from Curry College.
