I interned at Yahoo! last summer in the Sunnyvale office. It's at least 7000 people crammed in those 5 buildings with a central cafe. I used to eat all 3 meals at the office, best experience ever! I met some amazing engineers, learned a lot and had a blast. My team was 20 people which was a subdivision of 100 on a single floor with open office layout which helped me interact with all team members and gather information for my tasks. We used to play foosball everyday and go out for team lunches etc

They also have the bay just behind the office and I would go for a walk on the trail frequently. Yahoo! ( then Oath and now Verizon Media division ) has a strong engineering culture.
