- chrisseaton 7y agoWhy would that matter? You can be doing great technical work even if the company overall is doing something that may not be working out well.
- swozey 7y agoI don't really agree with this. I despise Facebook and happily retweeted a post a few weeks ago specifically aimed at helping FB engineers find work elsewhere. I'd prefer to help good people get out of bad places. https://twitter.com/EricaJoy/status/1190701524210438144 https://twitter.com/EricaJoy/status/1190701524210438144
- whatok 7y agoThere is a perception that they hired tech employees just to show "growth" and therefore people haven't really done much real work.
- p1esk 7y agoWow. You do realize most engineers have to work at far shittier companies and environments than FB? And for a lot less money.
- swozey 7y agoThen they should research the companies in the post and if they're interested in a change apply as well. No listing in that post is catering to an ex-FB employee by any means.
- MFLoon 7y agoI don't think most reasonable employers hold it against prospective employees if they have "bad" former employers. Obviously the exception being if they were employed in executive (and perhaps in some cases, managerial) capacities. But certainly not line engineers.
