LOL, exactly. I'm trying hard to feel sorry for SV FAANG workers getting laid off but I can't[1]. I'm also struggling to see how their self-esteem will take years to recover from this. Those cosseted 'engineers' earn probably 2 to 4 times a year more than me, and get meals etc. Their severance package is probably my annual wage. Plenty of time to find another gig with their FAANG resumes that suits their expectations. Perhaps if they spent a few years in the less rarified development jobs a lot of us deal with they might better understand their position in the world. [1] No I'm not.
