I'm an old fart who was around for the dot com days. Huge red flag the minute leadership shifts from growth to profitability. Usually a good time to update your CV.

>Huge red flag the minute leadership shifts from growth to profitability. Hasn't over 2/3rds of FAANG done this since the beginning of the year?

  Are you discussing internal projects because Facebook, Amazon, Apple, and Google have been profitable for a while. Netflix lost growth and was crushed.

    Nit: Netflix had negative growth and an outlook for a lot more negative growth.

    Netflix lost growth when they cut off Russia. Somehow (I have no idea how) they seem to have grown without it.

  We're still considering FAANG startups?
