A company is as strong as its weakest employee. Certainly a superpower like Google must have some exceptional talents working for it. A company must also handout hefty remunerations to keep this talent from going elsewhere. Let us take a look at how Google pays the people who make the search giants such a success.
20. Associate, online sales and operations
 |
Salary: $50,200
Google is a tech company. They value their engineers much more than any other employees. So this does not come as a surprise that sales associates figure at the last spot on the list. But the advantage of having ‘worked for Google’ should make the relatively small pay package look a little better.
19. AdWords associate
 |
Salary: $53,538
AdWords is Google’s main advertising product and its primary source of income. But surprisingly sales people working for this platform do not make as much money as they make for Google.
18. Account manager
 |
Salary: $68,188
Accounts managers are key people in a company who take care of the management of sales and also handle some important clients. Google does not hand out a very big salary package to account managers though.
17. Business Analyst
 |
Salary: $80,510
Analysts working for Google take home a slightly better salary than people in sales do. Their role is to keep a check on the overall working of a company and is a job that requires much more expertise.
16. Software engineer intern
 |
Salary: $82,488
Surprise surprise!! Google pays its interns more than it pays its regular employees in sales and marketing. This clearly shows the love a tech company gives to its engineers. But it is understandable because a tech company is nothing without its engineers.
15. Network engineer
 |
Salary: $87,219
Large organizations need a near perfect intranet service or else communication becomes difficult. This has a direct effect on the work that people have to do. Network enginers are the people responsible for keeping the internal networks working fine. Naturally they earn more than the sales people do.
14. User interface designer
 |
Salary: $87,661
The user interface of a company is how a user sees the company. Having a brilliantly designed UI is of great importance. But Google still pays its UI designers slightly more than its interns.
13. Senior account manager

Salary: $89,778
Google pays its senior accounts managers a decent salary. Although it is nowhere close to what senior software developers make.
12. Database administrator
 |
Salary: $94,420
Google is ideally known for its near magical search results. They have to crunch a large amount of data to make the search process run smoothly. Database administrators take care of all the data that Google has to process. These people are important and are paid relatively well.
11. Site reliability engineer
 |
Salary: $94,934
These people are very important since they make sure that search pages are working allright. A company can lose a lot of money if the site is down even for a few seconds. Therefore site reliability engineers in Google are paid well.
10. User experience researcher
