Question do you have a degree from a large university? Berkley? Stanford? MIT? In general they want people from Top universities. That is a huge deal to them. I know some people who work internally, and it's sort of an unwritten requirement. Also cultural fit as well. So if you are married chances are you will have a harder time there. They want people they can milk 12 hours a day from. I know this from other's first hand experiences working there.
Sure the perks are great but working there is not the best. As bobby said. It USED to be good. Now it just sucks and exploits new people in the workforce. You may have had the experience. They just are yanking your chain hoping you will fall into line. Something you said did made it difficult for them to consider you.
