Although since your manager usually sees your application (at least, they have wherever I've worked at!) they might notice if you put down something that's untrue, even if it takes a while.

I don't know about Google, but I know of quite a few companies that don't like that kind of thing, although it could make them more attractive if they've tweaked the results slightly, true (since I guess that might be quite hard)

I can't see that it allows candidates to be any less truthful than they normally would be to be honest
