Doesn’t Netflix only hire people senior engineers though? Perhaps you’d disagree about the definition of senior.
It probably is true that new grads are preferred and are more malleable into the company culture.
It feels to me that hiring from competitors is less about harming other companies and more about the signal that people know how to deal with the various ways big companies may work.
If the median(?) age at Google is 29, isn’t that a combination of (a) growing a lot and (b) hiring a lot of new grads? Then it’s mostly a function of the average % of the size of the company you hire each year at 22 years old.
