According to Techcrunch, anyone who joined Google a year ago is worth, on average, $276,000. But that’s not as crazy as The New York Times citing that 1,000 out of the 16,000 Google employees are worth more than $5 million. At the current price of $662/share, those stock grants and options are sure paying off!
I’ve been to one interview there and let me tell you that it’s the craziest one I’ve ever been to. Lots of mind bogging puzzles that make no sense, and the competition is just fierce. Mad props to anyone that has made it in. I wish I did. I’d be $276k richer right now. :(
i’m not surprised. it’s consistently voted one of the best places to work every year. it’s exclusive, awesome and must be totally fun to work there. i’m sure everyone’s seen it’s greatness, but if not:

Getting in is one thing, but working for google and your valued at $276,000, thats quite the accomplishment, and roughly 6.25% of their employees are valued at over $5million, now thats amazing. Also with working at google… it’s just like a place to socialize.. I mean, at the google faculties, there are gyms, pools, and even LAUNDRY rooms?! How much better can work be? The only problem is getting in :)
