[su_heading size=”18″]If you are in the dilemma of where to work, Facebook or Google, then congratulations, you are one of the privileged few![/su_heading]
Both companies are on the list of the 50 best companies to work for in America and are naturally very demanding when it comes to hiring employees. But if you get through the difficult interview process, a number of perks await you at both.
But let's make a comparison to see what Facebook and Google are like as employers:
Googlers make more money!
According to PayScale, the average salary for experienced employees at Google is $140,000 per year, placing it second on the list of companies with the best salaries. At Facebook, the average salary is $135,000. Okay, that's not a huge difference!
Facebookers are happier!
Employees at both companies report being happy with their workplaces, but Facebook has a slight edge with an employee satisfaction rating of 97% compared to Google's 86%. There are many factors behind this high level of satisfaction, but one very important one is that Facebook trusts its people. It is characteristic of the freedom that employees at the social network enjoy and that they are encouraged to question and criticize their superiors.
Googles have less stress!
Generally, if you are looking for a stress-free job, it is better to avoid the technology sector! But in our case at Google, it seems that employees have less stress than at Facebook. In the survey, 12% of Google employees responded that they have no stress at all and 7% at Facebook. Probably an important reason that they have less stress at Google is the massages in the workplace, free fitness classes and the rich vacations offered to employees.

Facebookers are slightly more likely to consider their work meaningful!
To PayScale's question "Does your job make the world a better place?", 79% of Facebook employees answered with a resounding yes, and 73% of Google employees answered yes.
The hiring process is easier on Facebook!
The hiring process at Google takes an average of 6 weeks, while at Facebook it takes a month, and candidates rate the Google interview as much more difficult than the Facebook interview. Also, at Google, very smart employees with a lot of potential often take lower-level positions.
Employees at both Google and Facebook have generous benefits, especially parents!
Both companies offer a lot to their employees, such as free meals, a healthy and vibrant office environment, transportation to and from the office, and long and generous parental leave.
