No, it looks good on your resume. The type of clown who would get upset at you working for Facebook is not someone you want to work for anyway so consider that another plus.
Some people get extremely sanctimonious about the latest thing their politics or corporate "news" media or the current popular trend on twitter gets them riled up about. Of course they will never face up to the fact that the companies they work for and buy from are neck deep in politics, consumerism, advertising, influencing, the war industry, corruption, greed, etc., too.
These people aren't nearly so brave or numerous in the real world as they would have you believe though. If you personally feel okay working for a company then I wouldn't bother worrying about the opinion of hypocrites.
- rizkeyz 5y agoThe clowns you are referring to are people with brains that look at more than just leetcode problems.

- Wiseacre 5y agoIf they do face up to the fact, then that means they are not necessarily clowns. Some orgs do have ethical standards.
- throwawaylinux 5y agoI'm talking about the vast majority who are in fact hypocrites and are very happy to rile up hatred and anger towards others while never reflecting on their own behavior and situations. I do know one or two people who think and care very deeply about this stuff and they (to some degree) put their money where their mouth is by attempting to avoid and not support these things they disagree with. They are typically the last to point their finger at others.
- dnissley 5y agoThe problem is that more and more orgs have "ethical standards" downloaded direct from the nytimes editorial section.
- throwawaylinux 5y agoAnd naturally those ethical standards only apply to others, not themselves.
