An Ex-Googler's Take On The Internship

The InternshipEditor's note:Caroline McCarthy is a writer and branded content consultant living in New York. Previously, she worked at Google and before that as a tech reporter for CNET.When I worked as a marketer at Google and learned of an upcoming comedy called "The Internship," which was to reunite Wedding Crashers duo Vince Vaughn and Owen Wilson as unemployed 40-year-old salesmen who luck their way into Google internships, most of the reactions I heard from my co-workers could be summed up as "meh." Neither Vaughn nor Wilson has had a truly funny movie in years. And, Id surmise, most Googlers have reached a point where the company quirks that the outside world finds so odd and intriguing are accepted as more or less routine, and certainly not interesting enough to hold up the foundations of a decent movie.
