Ive already walked away from my FAANG job because they are _considering_ changing the terms of my employment to include vaccination.
Several small startups I’ve talked to are already requiring proof of vaccination. But it’s legal and insurance demanding it, not their team. And these are for _fully remote_ positions. I suspect FAANG is finding itself in a similar position.
Tin foil hat: I’m starting to suspect someone (gov? Pharma?) is leaning on insurance companies to in turn pressure the industry to mandate vaccination.
> Walk away from a job because of it
It’s starting to seem like you’ll be free to not vaccinate in the U.S., but it’s more than walking away from a job. If insurance requires it, you’ll have to find a company that has an insurance company willing to float you an exemption for non-protected class reasons; it’s not clear how much the market is going to allow for that.
BTW: I’m vaccinated. I left my job not to avoid vaccination, but because they thought they could remove my agency.
