In the UK we have a heuristic that by the time a tech giant builds a big UK campus (an imitation of their SV HQ) then you know they are in the decline phase. Some of them decline so fast they don’t even get to fully complete the campus, yet others seems to have beaten this curse… so far.

Epic Systems (healthcare, not gaming) has bucked this trend. They have the most amazing campus I've visited. With 10K+ employees on site.

They're also privately held, which makes a difference.

This is from 2022; they've built a number of new themed buildings since then, including Star Trek.

Is Google's office in King's Cross even finished yet?

They have more than one building at King's Cross. One has been finished for ages but the new one I don't think is done. Not sure what happened to the fox on the roof. (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=44229727)
