Every wonder what the offices of some of today’s leading Web 2.0 companies looks like? Well, Charl Norman of Bandwidth Blog managed to snare office photos of ten leading Internet companies.

An office is the mirror of the company and what’s going on inside, the perfect way to communicate with your employees, customers and investors. Hence why so many say, your office is your face. Knowing it, we decided to make a list of the most known internet companies and see what they have to offer on the inside.

Some of the offices (like Tocquigny) looks very fancy, while others (like GigaOM) look pretty bare. It reminds me of my office. My favorite office is one from Songbird (see photos below). I need to get me an office like that!

    Nice, but all that brick just spells potential disaster here in California, where the ground can shake your socks off in a moment…

    This ain’t that bad. When I started my career as a web developer I was placed in the small stock room, because I was working for a retail store located in Harvard University campus. Later when the business picked we had our office. And I am glad I have gone through all those steps, learning lot, to make six figure income now a days.

    Those look pretty slick! Dual monitors and a beast of a Desktop are something that I’m working towards, not to mention landing a job at one of those firms!

    I’ll be honest. One of those swanky beautifully designed and feng shui’d offices is something I’ve wanted for years. The reality of it happening at the moment are slimmer than a sideways supermodel.

    Thanks for the post John, I am now even greener with envy :mrgreen:

    We are the kings of our own kingdom :-) I got an idea, let’s say on a fix date each one of us here display a picture of our office. Lets say on coming auspicious 25th December. What say?

    Lol… I rather stick to my apartment unless the office had an ocean view then it’d be worth working at an office. But I do like the sweet double monitor setups. I think I am getting tired of my 2 laptops.

    Nice places to work :). Oh well, “leading net firms” - it is something normal, methinks, to provide an optimal environment to their employers.

    I like the decor… looks a lot less clinical than most offices. But I’d rather have desks grouped together with people facing each other. That way you encourage direct communication and eye contact and end up with a much more social atmosphere.

    Twitter have the right attitude, always nice to have some plants in the office - I have Orchids, although I did use to sell them so I’m biased!

    I find the Tocquigny’s office way much prettier, seems like they applied that professional and serious look of a office to 100%, LinkedIn has some nice and colorful office too.

    I like Linkedin and Skype’s offices, they look modern and spacey. NetVibes looks kinda crunched, i’d hate to see the full staff working in there :???:

    a good idea for making a place of work comfortable is to add plants. The Ferrari factory has a forest in the middle. It makes people feel better. On my blog I’m growing a garden while i grow a blog. Cool combo! :cool:

    my “office” is my room currently…2 tables, one for the computer and another one for writing stuff. Well, the room is quite big, but still it looks messy. I’m quite neglecting order and stuff like that - I just throw things around (clothes, notebooks, books, etc)
