Adrien Nussenbaum is proud of the culture at Mirakl, where staff are encouraged to keep a balance between their work and personal lives.
Adrien Nussenbaum, the cofounder of hot French tech startup, Mirakl,, has strong views on why California's tech haven does not have everything right.
He explains:"When I visited Google's headquarters, an employee told me that staffers are obliged to be no more than 25 yards from food... For Google, you are an asset, and Google will feed you up so you produce. They're like chickens laying eggs in factories."Reddit founder Alexis Ohanian talked about the fetishization of extremely long working hours last year,"This is one of the most toxic, dangerous things in tech right now," Ohanian said.
"We offer yoga classes and language lessons. We also encourage everyone to teach their own hobbies to each other. For example, once week, an employee who is into photography will teach everyone photography, the following week, an employee who is a keen mixologist will teach everyone mixology, and so on."Nussenbaum says Silicon Valley's pursuit of the next big thing, of big backing, of unicorn status does not always draw out the best qualities in people and company culture.
