Based on what I've read (here, reddit, and sadly the cesspool that is Blind) Twitter engineers are lazy and the epitome of the "rest and vest" career path.
So, just software engineers being toxic gatekeepers based on dubious opinions.
I've noticed trying to interview at smaller companies with a big tech company on my resume, I get a lot of weird pushback - like the interviewer is actively trying to discard me just to say they did. (anecdotal - so for what it's worth)

Altough I heard Meta is also doing layoffs after their revenue tanked earlier this year, just like Twitter's did. So Amazon is a better example. My buddy worked there and he said 90% of his team just goes on Reddit all day.
