I remember my friend At Google telling me that he just got a big raise and that the raises were happening across the company. I wondered what cause googled to do this, but quickly assumed it was because Facebook was sucking talent away from google. At the time googlers were paid less than other companies too. Facebook might look good in this instance but remember they were growing really fast at this time so it would have seriously hurt them to agree to any hiring pacts.
