Have you ever wondered what it would be like to work at Facebook or Google?

Lucky for you, an infographic from Glassdoor offers some valuable insight. Employees from both companies weighed in on what they like most and least about their respective workplaces and, for the first time in four years, employees at Google said they are more satisfied than those at Facebook.

On a five-point scale, with five being very satisfied and one being very dissatisfied, employees rated Google a 3.9 and Facebook a 3.7. The Google workforce also likes its CEO a little more than Facebook employees do theirs—Larry Page received a 94 percent approval rating and Mark Zuckerberg claimed a 92.

What do the employees dislike about their respective workplaces?

Google:

  • Salary and compensation (7 percent)
  • Politics (6 percent)
  • Work/life balance (4 percent)

Facebook:

  • Long hours (9 percent)
  • Work/life balance (7 percent)
  • Politics (5 percent)
