facebook is still pre-liquidity event. google has more options for working outside of mountain view. if you're on the right team, you can go work in nyc, london, a farm in arkansas, etc. there are more Bs and Cs at google. they hired a lot of duds during the great hiring spree of 2007-2009. google is almost like having a regular job. if you don't have a psycho as a manager, you can live like a semi normal human being, leave work at 6pm, have hobbies, etc. facebook will be more life-consuming. I find it hard to believe that you got an offer at both places and didn't get a gut feeling about which one you'd rather work at.
