Baidu Hires Googler
April 17, 2010
Short honk: The China – Google dust up will, like the ash from the Eyjafjallajokull volcano, take some time to settle. I read the short item “Google Loses Chinese Exec to Baidu” and realized that this type of job change might be pretty savvy. For the job changers, it makes clear that the future for that person is not with Google. For the Chinese government, it makes clear that an employee has some common sense with regard to earning a living. Can China pull Google’s Chinese talent? I don’t know, but I know that avoiding hassles may have some charm for Google’s in country employees and maybe for some Chinese citizens working for Google outside of China may be a factor at some point. Bureaucracies can be tricky to navigate in some nation states.
