Google listed as top employer

Google, along with Facebook, was listed as the best employer in the United States, according to a survey that was done by Glassdoor. It has the best pay along with the best benefits. Google was at the top of the list, with the average pay is $219,000 a year. Employees also have access to a free gym, laundry, billards, and pet boarding.

Second place on the list goes to Costco, third being facebook. In 25th spot is ebay.

However, keep in mind what an ex employee of google stated. This ex employee worked at Google for 8 years. They stated that they have never known anyone that took time off or weekends off. So does that mean that for the $219,000 you work pretty much every day of the year.

So what would you say? Would you want to work for a company that was like this? Great pay and excellent benefits but working constantly without weekends off or vacations? Or is that the employees choice? Do they like the work so much that they want to spend all their time there? I mean with a gym, laundry service, pet boarding and more, maybe it is a great place to work?
