> you get some choice as to where to work
People's career decisions tend to be motivated by money. If you're looking to maximize your compensation, the options are Big Tech (Google and Amazon have similar levels of ethics issues as Facebook) or finance (depending on your views, potentially even less ethical).
I'm not saying working at one of these places is the right decision, but it's very much an understandable one.
- ionised 8y agoIs 'maximising your compensation' the only goal? Isn't maximising your earnings supposed to be a means to something greater, not an end in itself?
