Look, if you want to hire the smartest, most innovative people in the world, you go to San Francisco. Period, end of statement. But FAANG are no longer hiring

Look, if you want to hire the smartest, most innovative people in the world, you go to San Francisco. Period, end of statement. But FAANG are no longer hiring the smartest, most innovative people in the world. Those people served their purpose, and were instrumental in making FAANG huge. FAANG stays huge by keeping the lights on at minimal cost. That takes legions of schlubs to maintain and incrementally improve their massive infrastructure... and those are more plentifully, and cheaply, found elsewhere.
