you’re making Bezos richer while you get rich yourself. the 2nd part is important

  Forgoing the latter is worth not doing the former imo. Again, unless we’re talking millions per year, which 99% of FAANG employees aren’t making. The best one could hope for is high six figures, probably toping out around $800-$900k after 15 years. As I said though, this only makes sense if your goal is money. I personally don’t value money over other things like mental health and enjoying my work. I know I would have much worse mental health, and hate what I do at a FAANG.

    why not both? get the money and do something you enjoy?

    That's 900k per year. Their net worth in 15 years will be 5M or even higher (thanks to stocks growth). That's complete financial freedom at the age of 45.
