Everybody wants to work for Google. 

Just ask the college kids.

Grads from the nation's top business, computer science, humanities, engineering, and even natural-science programs all want to work for Larry and Sergey's company. 

It's easy to see why.

Google plays a bigger part in our lives than maybe any other tech company, with over 10 billion Google searches made and a billion Android users active every month. 

Of course, there's also the money that Google's 55,000 employees take in.

Using Glassdoor's self-reported compensation numbers, we can see that Google is a place in which employees are well compensated, especially for that highly-sought-after engineering talent. If you're in engineering at Google, you're making Wall Street-level money. 

According to Glassdoor, here's the combined compensation — i.e. annual salary and bonus — for 15 positions at Google, in ascending order: 

1. Business Development Manager: $159,502 
2. Technical Program Manager: $159,738
3. Marketing Manager: $160,726
4. Site Reliability Engineer: $167,360
5. Technical Program Manager III: $184,514
6. Software Engineer IV: $192,357
7. Sales Operations Manager: $195,795 
8. Product Manager: $201,410
9. Finance Manager: $204,537
10. Research Scientist: $215,158
11. Senior Software Engineer: $242,449
12. Senior Software Development Engineer: $262,463
13. Senior Manager: $279,245
14. Engineering Manager: $285,131
15. Senior Product Manager: $320,142

Drake Baer was Business Insider's editor-at-large, working across the newsroom to help produce ambitious journalism. For two and a half years before that, Baer served as deputy editor, overseeing a team of 20+ reporters and editors who cover the future of work, real estate, and small business. The fast-paced team was behind some of Insider's major packages in the last few years, including a state-by-state look into unemployment during the first year of the pandemic and in-depth profiles of "niche famous" characters such as real estate media tycoon Brandon Turner and HR icon Johnny C Taylor. They shed new light on big names, like Joe Biden, America's imperfect leader. He also cultivated thesis-oriented ideas journalism, whether it be on why "'diversity' and 'inclusion' are the emptiest words in corporate America" or why it's actually a horrible time to buy a house. (No, really, it is.) Before editing, his byline as a reporter was on the masthead for Fast Company and New York Magazine, covering the many intersections of social science, business, and economics. Baer has interviewed some our time's leading minds, including philanthropist Bill Gates, FiveThirtyEight founder Nate Silver, NBA champion and investor Steph Curry, "growth mindset" psychologist Carol Dweck, the rapper Q-Tip, Nobel laureate Daniel Kahneman, and the man who gave a name to "disruptive innovation," the late Clay Christensen.Baer has published two books, the most recent being Perception: How Our Bodies Shape Our Minds, with Dennis Proffitt. In 2014, New York Times bestselling author and Wharton professor Adam Grant highlighted his first book, Everything Connects, as one of the 12 business books to read that year. He has been featured as a speaker at the Aspen Ideas Festival, presented at TedX Princeton, and moderated many panels.
