14 DAY TRIAL // Two of the potential stars from the Googleplex decided to leave the company and to join the famous Benchmark Capital as "Entrepreneurs in Residence". As Matt Marshall from VentureBeat reported, the two ex-Google employees will receive money for starting new businesses owned by the parent company and make them famous on the market. Bret Taylor and Jim Norris worked on Google Maps and several other products designed by the Mountain View giant, both sustaining that they were attracted by the experience required to run a business.
"It's not about the money," they said according to VentureBeat. But as Doug Caverly from WebProNews says, "although if it were about the money, I suppose it wouldn't be polite to say so."
Anyway, Google suffers the second departure in a week, after the famous Google Webmaster Central founder Vanessa Fox decided to leave the company for another job experience. It's not quite clear what makes the Google engineers to look for another job since the Mountain View company was named as the best company in the world to work for. Moreover, Google is currently in an impressive expansion process, opening new offices in every corner of the world and hiring new engineers to work for its products.

In addition, every Google employee has the possibility to spend 20 percent of the work time for individual projects as the search giant is continuously encouraging them to build new products and to develop their ideas.
