What obvious truth is acknowledged here?
- They pay extremely well and offer great benefits to their engineers.
- They (not coincidentally) are able to hire great talent.
- That their platforms offer as much reach as any other company
None of this is new information and neither "great company" nor "does great things" follow from what's provided here.
- Liron 4y agoYes, those are obvious important truths, but weird to cite without related truths that shed more light on why Meta has the money, power and influence it does. Like that people there are smart, believe in the vision, care to do a good job. And that users love the products. If you’re summarizing positive bullet points from the article, you’ve only listed 3 of about 10.
- mwt 4y agoI'm pretty much listing off the subheaders, none of which I dispute nor seem to be disputed by the general consensus. What is still unclear, however, is how to draw an arrow from "I love working here" to "the product is great." I think everybody here has experiences in companies/roles that are large and/or opaque enough to muddy that cause-and-effect.
