The company is based in Mountain View, California, and has 13,748 full-time employees (as of June 30, 2007). Google`s mission statement is, "to organize the world`s information and make it universally accessible and useful." Google`s corporate philosophy includes statements such as "Don`t be evil", and "Work should be challenging and the challenge should be fun", illustrating a somewhat relaxed corporate culture.

Google`s initial public offering took place on August 19, 2004, raising $1.67 billion, making it worth $23 billion.
