As much as I agree that people should try to avoid companies with bad ethics, it is not always that simple. I know some junior in tech that need to send 300+ applications for even just an internship and it is not uncommon for even more seasoned people to have to send 100s of applications to just even get a decent number of interviews. It is just hard to get a perfect view of the ethics of these hundred of companies. And if you just do that check at the interview step, which I am sure quite a few people will do, it can be tough to refuse 80% of your interviews because of companies have bad practices, when you struggled badly to land these few interviews.

So again end of the day it’s up to individuals and the choices they make. Maybe you can’t flex on your peers as quickly or you have to live below means. But at least it always works out in the end. It did for me and my only conclusion at my age now is that people make excuses for shortcuts and bad decisions and end up in non ideal situations. And there will always be jobs. Always. You can always make it work. And a job is just a job. If your company ends up being ass you leave and get a new job where they treat people not like commodity animals.
