Here is a list of the top 10.

The company's managers are notorious for giving their workers the freedom to conquer projects to their own specification. A four-month paid parental leave program also adds to the attractiveness of working at Facebook.

You know you're working at a cool company when the CEO Tim Cook claims employees guard more secrets than the CIA.
