In terms of the typical Google option recipient, I suspect that at some future time Google will have some issues in internal equity and maybe even attracting and retaining talent. Most companies with explosive growth eventually hit a period where they slow, stagnate or even fall back in terms of performance and therefore share price. Walmart also used to talk about the number of ordinary employee millionaires it made. Not no more.
I will hold Google above the already high regard I have for them if they successfully navigate that period in the company's life.

To be sure there are a lot of psychic benefits of working at Google too. At best any competing employer is probably going to be even on the quality of life issues and way behind on the financial compensation. And even if they were even on both... it's Google, man! Who doesn't want to work there? (I'm sure the work culture of Google is well-documented a million places, but nevertheless I found this article interesting -- just skim past the Agile-bashing if it doesn't interest you.)
Then again, there's a lot of talent among the 99.99% of us who aren't smart/knowledgeable enough to work at Google.
