Mountain View, CA-based Google Appointed Prasad Setty as Vice President, People Operations Analytics, Communications and Compensation
About the Company
Google`s mission is to organize the world`s information and make it universally accessible and useful. Since our founding in 1998, Google has grown by leaps and bounds. From offering search in a single language we now offer dozens of products and services—including various forms of advertising and web applications for all kinds of tasks—in scores of languages. And starting from two computer science students in a university dorm room, they now have thousands of employees and offices around the world. A lot has changed since the first Google search engine appeared. But some things haven`t changed their dedication to our users and our belief in the possibilities of the Internet itself.

In his career, Prasad has taught farmers how to grow rice, helped the US Army destroy toxic rocket fuel, and built the first variable scanning angle reflectometer.
