At least at Facebook they don't have to rationalize taking over jobs and destroying lives through automation.

  Pretty dramatic! All software eliminates jobs. If a computer does something that used to take humans thousands of hours, jobs disappear. The question is whether those were jobs people wanted or needed. In our case, the answer is no. Our clients are extremely traditional and would prefer to throw more people at these problems rather than adopt software. The only reason they're talking to us now is because people are quitting these jobs and they can't find anyone to hire to do them. We've never eliminated a job, but even if we did, these are Ivy League accountants, often from wealthy backgrounds. They're all going to be fine. One of them just quit our client's company without a job lined up, just because she hated the Excel work so much.

    Haha good times. Anyway, to feign moral superiority is despicable. I will make sure to filter this kind of person while hiring.
