There are many talented engineers all across the political spectrum.
- acdha 6y agoThis isn’t untrue but the distribution matters. Most of the conservative-leaning engineers I’ve known tended to be libertarian and/or rule of law types who wouldn’t work for a place like Parler. If you’re a devoted capitalist, you might favor larger companies with better pay. And, of course, if you’re not all of white, straight, Christian, and male you might reasonably have concerns which would not have stopped you from taking a job from, say, Mitt Romney. Each degree you move to an extreme has a fair impact on your ability to hire the best in a very competitive market. Even if you’re a movement conservative a prudent question is how something on your resume might affect your future earning potential.
