For many young professionals, Google is the holy grail of companies due to its work culture and amazing perks. However, only the best of the best get to work for the company, and it has been said that it’s harder to get into Google than to gain admission at Harvard.

According to a report prepared by Staff.com (via Forbes), only 1 in 130 applicants get a job at Google compared with 1 in 14 high school students applying to Harvard. This is because very few people get to pass with flying colors through Google’s interview process, which could take an average of 37 days to complete.

However, there are other companies in the country that offer the same culture and perks, and the good news is that all of these companies are hiring at the moment. The Muse compiled a list of companies that are as great as the search engine company, and here are some of those organizations, including the open positions that they have available.

Philips

The Dutch technology company is not just known for its lighting and tech products, but it is also making advancements in the health-technology space. According to employee reviews on Glassdoor, Philips has a great employee culture and the company gives importance to work-life balance. Meanwhile, an Indeed reviewer said that the company is “people oriented” and that there is plenty of potential for career growth.

Philips has openings for entry level, mid-level, and senior level positions, which include sales representative, cryogenic design engineer, and program manager, among others.

Braintree

A subsidiary of Paypal, Braintree makes it easy for businesses around the world to make and accept payments online. Among the activities that keep employees motivated are yearly retreats, games, and Taylor Swift dance parties. They also receive amazing perks such as daily catered lunches and free items.

Currently, the company is looking for security, operations, and software engineers, as well as interns, overnight tech support, and a relationship manager, among others.

Booking.com

The Amsterdam-based online accommodation website takes teamwork seriously, that’s why it always schedules fun team building activities such as off-site trips where they solve puzzles or master escape rooms.
