Google is giving it's employees $1000.00 Christmas bonus and paying the taxes on it. If that's not nice enough, everyone is starting the new year with a 10% pay raise.
I want to work for Google.

I've seen their offices. Talk about The place to work. Lounge chairs in a darkened room with soothing sounds to de-stress with. Gourmet dining room and you can invite your family to eat with you, I think it's once a week. The list is endless.
Don't tell me that their benefit package is better than the one you get as a moderator on Lush Stories...I can't believe it...

Oh no no no. Mine is much better. We have many perks here as a Lush Team Member. Why, I even get to use the bathroom once a week as long as the boss isn't in there at my allotted 2 minute time. Plus if I'm real good that week, Gav let's me pet his monkey. You know the one that does the coding.

But then don't you have to live in California?
Yes, Mountain View Ca. I think it would be worth the move. They are supposed to have offices around the world now. I got this from their website. What's available to employees.
* Local expressions of each location, from a mural in Buenos Aires to ski gondolas in Zurich, showcasing each office’s region and personality.
* Bicycles or scooters for efficient travel between meetings; dogs; lava lamps; massage chairs; large inflatable balls.
* Googlers sharing cubes, yurts and huddle rooms – and very few solo offices.
* Laptops everywhere – standard issue for mobile coding, email on the go and note-taking.
* Foosball, pool tables, volleyball courts, assorted video games, pianos, ping pong tables, and gyms that offer yoga and dance classes.
* Grassroots employee groups for all interests, like meditation, film, wine tasting and salsa dancing.
* Healthy lunches and dinners for all staff at a variety of cafés.
* Break rooms packed with a variety of snacks and drinks to keep Googlers going.

Executives must be getting a little worried about the amount of brain drain and employees defecting to Facebook, LinkIn etc. It's not like they can't afford it.
But then I would think due to the level of competition for talent in Silicon Valley, they would be doing more than small bonuses and 10pc pay increases...

Those guys have done well for themselves!
Net income rose 32 percent to $2.17 billion, or $6.72 a share, from $1.64 billion, or $5.13, a year earlier, Google said on its website. Profit excluding some items was $7.64 a share, exceeding the $6.68 average of estimates compiled by Bloomberg.

I work for myself, and my boss isn't that generous.
