I think these are all great choices, and you really cannot go wrong with any one of these choices.

Some things to help you decide:

- Look at the team you will be working with. "Tesla" sounds exciting. "Writing device drivers for USB components for cars" does not. The team matters. Which team is most exciting?

- Look at your immediate manager. Does he/she seem like a person you would enjoy working with?

- Look at the other members of the team. People you can learn from? People you can get along with?

Good luck!

At Tesla/SpaceX, I would be working on an extremely exciting project.

I haven't been matched with a team at Google yet, but Google offers a lot of flexibility in location and project, so there are plenty of possibilities. I am an undergraduate though, so research heavy projects are unlikely.
