Yeah. Ghey can find another job. Though not with us. We don’t hire ex Meta employees. You have to be pretty fucked up to accept working there in the first place.

When did you guys make that decision? Was there a particular evil action or the combination of all.
Idk if they were evil by 2010, but certainly by 2015 they were.

After losing hours interviewing some of them back in the days and realizing they were not software engineers, but facebook engineers, completly lost with anything else. It’s even worse with ex Google employees.
Some of them are probably very capable, but as for those, well, they pay the price of their past decisions. Been like that for at least 10y by now.

Yeah, some engineers who work for very large companies basically become type cast. Can’t do anything other than pull this lever, watch this knob and mark this on excel. It doesn’t matter if they graduated from Netflix academy or have a highschool degree or got trained at big co, those skills are not engineering.

So basically it’s why agism exists in Tech except it’s accelerated to be 25 year olds instead of 65 years olds…?

Interesting and seems about right. I’m kinda surprised that the skills don’t transfer, but the culture sure would. I wouldn’t wand FB or G culture in my office. Eww
