are dream companies for any IT enthusiast. If I ask you which one would you prefer to join then it might be a difficult question to answer. Another difficult question is who is more influential among Mark Zuckerberg or Larry Page and Sergey Brin. Well, for most of us all 3 are like role models. Personally I rate both Facebook and Google at similar place. Both have changed our life in different ways. Google search engine and Gmail are essential part of our day to day lives and we just can’t lead a normal life without these two now. On the other hand Facebook has given new dimensions to social networking. They have turned the simple idea of staying connected with friends to one of the most successful business ideas in recent times. Recently glassdoor published their infographic about Google and Facebook.
