Google is constantly pushing for growth in their industry. Their Google Plex is set up to spark creativity and they’re constantly coming out with new apps and technology. The problem Google might face with this drive for growth is that when a company gets big and fast by outdoing their competitors, like Google has, it sparks jealousy and excites different parties to capitalize on litigation or reporting on their miscues.
Google also has the tendency to hire people rapidly in order to pursue their growth. They may be hiring faster and more than they can handle on their profits.
All this being said there has been criticism against Google saying that their Cocky and self absorbed because of all their growth. They feel entitled and elite.
I think what’s so dangerous is that Google fosters and promotes creativity in the technological world, which is at the forefront of young thinkers, and is what we concentrate on in our generation. If Google is so quick to feel entitled, and seem cocky while they are still in a potential growth stage then they may be taking young hopefuls, and the genius minds they’re looking for and turning them off with their attitude to go else where.
Whether the accusations are true or not if Google really wants to continue to grow they would have to seriously concentrate on their PR and make sure that they maintain a relatable, do no harm persona to keep up a reputation that can foster their growth expectations.

6. Microsoft definitely would become and even bigger competitor of Google if they acquired yahoo and it would make their stock go up but I wouldn’t be worried as a shareholder because based on 2007’s online advertising revenue, even combined Microsoft and yahoo doesn’t add up to what Google has. Nothing is to say that Microsoft and Yahoo would have worked well together. Google also did the only thing that would have helped them in this situation. They extended a hand to help yahoo out, a company that was slightly struggling at the time and has made some of its own growth and improvements in 2010 ahead of Microsoft. By keeping them in the game they allied yahoo and kept the competition fair because there is still another week link out there as apposed to having them join forces and become on entity that much stronger.
