Dream of rocking up to Google's plush St Giles office and making use of its famous slide to get to meetings? Fancy becoming a Twitter native? 

Loads of people dream of working for a US tech giant – but how much do they actually pay their London workforce? Jobs site Glassdoor, which compares salaries at companies all over the world, sheds light on what goes on at the swish London headquarters of some of the world's most desirable employers…

Google

The search giant may have come under fire for the amount of tax it pays in the UK – but its workers are still pretty well rewarded.

Software engineer: £61,668

Product manager: £88,797

Account manager: £63,102

Facebook

Facebook unveiled record profits for last quarter – so it can afford to pay its employees a bob or two.

Twitter

Only one London salary posted for Twitter…

Software engineer: £53,541
