Meta employee here. People here are so entitled. I knew what I signed up for, but it seems many of my colleagues were/are oblivious

    You knew what you signed up for, but still signed up for it?

    "Hmmmmm, this Adolph Hitler guy seems antisementic, and wants me to help him build an army. Welp. A job is a job....guess I'm a nazi soldier now...."

    Same energy.

    I mean I think comparing Zuck to Hitler is a stretch, but also consider that Hitler would be a lot more limited if his soldiers knew what was going on and were morally concious

    But yea I do it for the money. I make over 5x the salary compared to my previous job

    Just like I block all your employer’s domains I block you. I’ve had the chance to sell out too but it’s kind of gross that you know that what you’re doing is wrong but you rationalize it with “because money.”

    Maybe he just didn't want to work till death. The big tech companies used to pay enough that you could retire early fairly easily. Few other opportunities for that unless you're born into wealth and connections.

    Idk if they still pay the same after all the layoffs, I haven't kept up because under Trump, the US is no longer an attractive place to work.
