Google Offers Staff Engineer $3.5 Million To Turn Down Facebook Offer

In September I wrote about Google’s “extraordinary” efforts  to stop employees, particularly engineers, from resigning to join pre-IPO startups like LinkedIn, Twitter and especially Facebook. In one case we confirmed an engineer making around $150,000 turned down a 15% raise plus $500,000 in restricted stock and left for Facebook anyway.
