An MOU was signed by between the Government of Andhra Pradesh and Google, on Monday, at the company''s Mountain View headquarters to set up its biggest campus of Asia
at Hyderabad by investing about Rs. 1,000 crore.
The campus will have an
office (working) space of about 2 million square feet.
The campus will employ 13,000 engineers over the
next four years.And will be located on a 7.2 Acre land parcel near Gachibowli. Google expects the facility to be operational in about four years time.
According to David Radcliffe, global head (facilities and workplaces), Google, the company will spend about 12 months on planning and construction
will start around the summer of 2016. Construction will take about two
and a half years and we could have a facility will be operational as early as
2019.
Comment : Unlike TCS, Google would not have forced it''s workers to move far out of the city and travel 3 to 4 hours to work. Google would want it''s employees to enjoy life, be close to the city, medical and other facilities. And hence they have taken land close to Gachibowli.
Unfortunately, Indian companies do not care! They only need large amount of cheap land! And will force employees to go and work in remote areas. ( Example: TCS - Adibatla , Infosys -Pocharam)
