Welcome to St. John’s Terminal | New Google office in NYC

Take a look inside St. John's Terminal, Google's newest office in New York City. We've adapted this historic freight train terminal (the original end of NYC's High Line) into an innovative workplace designed around teams first, with multiple floors dedicated to working alongside our clients and business partners. St. John's Terminal was also built for a sustainable future, with solar panels, stormwater retention, and roughly 1.5 acres of native vegetation that supports local bird and insect species.

Distraction free zones for focused work are also important.

[@h3llotherefellas]

That's probably what they meant with "liberary-like" spaces :)

[@rozminhall]

Its’s psychology design. Create a communal-like space to make people come to office. Plus most big tech companies over hire, so work is distributed in a way that time spend socialising during work hours are part of their productivity equation.

sometimes you need to be distracted from working on the wrong problem.

[@feelgoodmusic8722]

Nah f* that. Let's just all chill... wild setup.

[@real1muzik]

So comfortable, you never want to leave. Good idea, feed them breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Who needs a family when Google's got you :)

Would much rather work at Home.

[@Bbb-by7st]

is it the filter or the weather that makes the sky and the environment look gloomy? is this kind of weather common in new york? as a californian, i would be depressed within a week working in this office.

[@carson9903]

Definitely some kind of weird color grading

[@3markaw]

Have you ever ventured into the northern US / Canada / EU ? Especially in winter clouds are a constant way of life. Try and get over it. What NYers lack in vitamin D they more than make up for in better skin .

Congrats 👏 I’ve been looking forward to its completion 🔥

[@slworking2]

How long before the workers hired to work here get laid off?

And... Everybody in this video and in that office was fired because being profitable is not enough for the greedy CEO and the board.

[@sandman.38]

It would be great if they started hiring people like normal again. Their recruiters keeps wasting my time. "We're hiring for the Google Cloud team", two days later after interviewing: "Google announces layoffs in the Google Cloud department". Lol this is why I have my own tech company. Instead of wasting my time jerking off to leetcode hard q's I'm literally building my own AI search engine with their data.

[@vijayakumar_3]

Yes

[@aNotoriousPhD]

it’s kinda funny how google is making this video about doing great things for their employees, i think it would’ve been much better for your employees to have not laid off 12,000+ of them. and then do billions in stock buybacks just to spit in their face

[@slworking2]

Beat me to it. Why are they even bothering to open this new office when the CEO is so eager to lay off employees?

[@cadsux]

12,000 out of 300,000 to 400,000 employees is a 4% cut of the workforce. At 100,000 annual salary & 30,000 bonuses, well, you do the math. As to why bother with a "new office"? How about contractual commitments, end-lease / decomissioning of other properties, having more modern facilities to meet the demands of users, and haters who comment on KZbin?

[@josephsalangau2625]

😢😢😢🎉😢😮😢😢😮

[@paranoidhumanoid]

That's just the nature of the business.

[@N00btuberXXX]

Lets be honest, most of the people in the layoffs were people that just posted "day in the life" videos.

[@ProfessordevilL]

Looks like a nice place to hangout with co workers once in a while. But to get actual deep work done, there's not place like the home office.

[@jurajchobot]

Well, it's been invented decades ago. It's called university campus. I often wondered why campuses are so open, designed for people to meet, have a good time and collaborate, but workspaces are tiny separated cubicles designed for you to suffer in silence and talk to the man across the table through a headset. For me, a rule of the thumb for workspace would be if I found this new book I want to read, would I rather read it at home or somewhere at my workspace? I figured it out at college where I sometimes had to wait hours for classes and instead of going home, I was frequently tempted to rather stay at campus and read something interesting. Most universities have that in common and most great campuses kind of look like the Google's NYC office.

[@strangefancypants17]

It was a thing before University Campuses. They're called places that are walkable, and free of cars.

[@musclemansam123]

Google has a reputation for writing great code and making a lot of money. The engineers work tirelessly around the clock to earn their pay, without the need for real-time budgeting or offices. Although an office space would be nice, there is no real work direction in terms of where to write code. Some engineers even work outside on some of the campuses with their PCs. I'm not a Googler myself, but I've watched some of the Googler KZbinrs like TechLead www.youtube.com/@TechLead. You can watch him do a lot of code reviews, give good advice, and talk about crypto.

[@cadsux]

Yes Mr. Obvious. Most of the worldwide Google locations are called "campuses". There's no rip-off there. Except that most corporations don't have a "university campus" style layout, nor break rooms and cafes with free food, nor free bus services to campus, free internal uber/shuttle service. And free-use bicycles. For the past 25 years, the entire Google culture revolves around this, and not just this new one NY location.

[@taaaaaaay]

Too bad they won’t have anyone working here cuz they keep on firing people 😂

[@BlindMango]

Nothing screams "focus" and "productivity" like an open layout with a bunch of IKEA tables, uncomfortable modern couches, and a coffee shop. I bet they can't wait to prop their feet on that coffee table for 8 hours while sitting on that cheap chair while squinting at their laptop with its fan at full blast because it's balancing on their legs blocking the fan intake. It sure beats having your own pesky cubicle with a dual monitor setup, your own desk, personal storage, etc

[@MLTAKOS]

no wonder nothing get done at google, just look at the latest gemini mess, the bard mess and so much more, looks like they prioritise looks and aesthetic way more than practicability…

[@raaajit1]

they can enjoy till they get terminated 😁

[@Cballin]

This all seems like it could be done remote without workers having to commute into downtown manhatten.

[@bortao]

Love the "The Office" style shots. Fitting.

[@Durgaprasadmohanty-ju1fv]

I love the praposal

[@mohitnegi724]

They say it's home for employees, and then they lay them off. Isn't it ironic? Looks like Google is going to pay the cost of this construction through employee layoffs.

[@slworking2]

Exactly. Google CEO believes in fear-based management. And yet somehow they're going to open an office like this?

[@JayR079]

I was part of construction on this job. From the demo phase till pretty much the end of the job.

[@deveshvarma8531]

How was your experience?

I see all the hate in the comments, but this place is awesome. Especially if you’ve lived in NYC this place is an amazing place to work. That nature is priceless in the city.

It's mostly from jealous people who live in dusty cities where nothing important ever happens.

[@mwenvlay]

@@paranoidhumanoidi was born and raised in nyc, my job title is a role i could get at a company like google and i have ZERO desire to work in an office like that.

[@lastswordfighter]

Spare everyone your pompous nonsense. Google doesn't innovate it sucks. Their ai can't even properly depict the company's ceos. Woke is cancer deal with it.

[@paranoidhumanoid]

Likely a useless role in a town where nothing important ever happens. Something next to realtor or people person.@@mwenvlay

Ok so by laying off so many ppl u guys r building this stuff

[@furkane5512]

why is this video giving old ass 90's vibes? maybe you should innovate on videography too huh google?

[@olpkol]

They did not show a single person who WORKS! Everyone walks, drinks coffee, but not a single person who works!

[@manchuratt8900]

Most people don't want to be together all the time. If you're together al the time, you ain't getting much work done. To the contrary, most of the critical work gets done when you are alone, uninterrupted, and able to think deeply.

I wish I worked in a nice office rather than a cold damp warehouse!!! 😔😟😭

[@LeveragedFinance]

Looks noisy. Probably horrible for Google Meets meetings.

One step away from having corporate apartments on site so you really never have to leave which would make this a dystopian reality in full effect.
