(Completely idiotic response ahead) Umm, really? Every day I see thousands of developers who would rather work in Google than Facebook... :)

(Non snarky response) I dunno. I joined Google in 2008, and as far as I know Google was always like that. So, unless you claim developers have preferred Facebook etc. to Google for more than 5 years now, it's probably not related to the interview process.

From Glassdoor's data, it appears Facebook employees rate their experience better than Google employees from 2009-2012:

Also base rate is higher at Facebook, and interview difficulty is rated lower at Facebook.

Somewhat disappointing, as I'm a huge fan of Google.

I chose Facebook over Google two years ago (despite a more lucrative offer from Google), because I wanted to go where I could have more of an impact. The interview processes are nearly identical. One of my go-to questions was a question I got asked at Google, actually.
