They don't care. A job at Facebook is still considered prestigious by a large part of the tech community. They're starting to be grouped more with Palantir than Google, though.

- justinclift 8y ago> They're starting to be grouped more with Palantir than Google, though. That's confusing. Is Palantir regarded as better or worse than Google?
- scottlocklin 8y agoI think most people consider google more prestigious. While they'll try to convince you otherwise, it's mostly because google pays better.
- TheKarateKid 8y agoPalantir is known to do lots of government contracting for US defense/anti-terrorism intelligence, so working there is viewed much like working for Lockheed Martin/Boeing/etc. where it is known the work you are doing could very well be involved in wars/military agendas. Your role in your job there could cross the line of what some people would as ethical to some people, and Facebook's malicious behavior is making employees who work there to be viewed in a similar light.
