      These big tech companies forgot that treating employees like more than machines is what got them to the top.

      Its hard for me to feel bad.

      Facebook has been horrible, for a while now, and they still worked there.

      Had they not been fired, they still would be.

      They didn’t seem to care, until it affected them personally

      I wonder how many of those fired employee employees cared about this issue before they were fired

      They all signed up to work for this reverse trash-disposal company, & were happy to cash its 6 figure checks, vest its stock.

      A little late, but if you’d all like to start unionizing against these assholes, that would be great.

      I mean look at the dude. His dress sense matches his ethics, it’s always been a train wreck.

      Gentle reminder that the company wasn’t even his idea.

      Zuck has made some pretty terrible business decisions lately. Including settling with Trump over his ban when the first amendment would have easily given Zuck a win. People should delete their accounts and find alternatives because guys like Zuck don’t care until they start losing a lot of money.

      It’s time to boycott all things Meta. This company needs to die already and Zuck needs to go broke.

      It’s cute that they think this is exclusive to Meta.

      Almost all tech companies are like this.

      The bigger they are the shittier they are.

      Okay, but if they wait until they are fired to say something about it, they are part of the problem too.

      To be fair facebook employees can go fuck themselves. It was always very clear what a disgusting company facebook is and what their work will contribute to.

      They have been working for a company that has been involved in selling your information and promotion of lies. There are generally choices for these folks where they could have worked

      I’ve never been willing to work for that scumbag and never would. Meta recruiters can kick rocks.

      Surprisingly there is an interview of his from a decade or more ago where he said he only wants young talent who commit to the job (aka 80-100hr weeks). I think he acquiesced when Sheryl was around but now it’s open season and he gets to do what he wants.

      I just had a Meta recruiter reach out to me today.

      Told them I don’t work for companies that bow to Nazis and to never contact me again.

      Zuckerberg is never worked another job in his entire life. He has no idea what he is doing other than what people tell him to do. He has no life experience to draw from, dude is a bitch to begin with.

      These same people didn’t give af as long as tens of thousands were hitting their bank account every few months

      It’s comically pathetic. Best and brightest grads fighting like hell to land a job there, believing they are gonna do some super innovative stuff. When’s the last time Meta had anything innovative? They buy it or steal it and fight it out in court till they run the owner out of money. Instagram. Vines. You name it.

      Oh wow, legless avatars. Fuckin Nintendo Wii 10+ years ago and I doubt it cost then $10B+

      Companies get that big and all they can do is set money on fire chasing the latest fad and never delivering. It’s where innovation goes to die.

      Best and brightest are better off going down a notch, still getting seriously good money (just not the insane Meta levels), and ACTUALLY make something amazing.

      For me, yes, I need really good, highly skilled engineers. But I need someone with a decent level of ethics. I’m not entrusting my IP, my reputation, my customers to someone who turned a blind eye to that kind of fraud, corruption and flagrant disregard for business and professional (and ethical) norms.

      And yet, you worked there by choice. If you had left of your own accord you might be worth listening to but you had to literally be laid off to leave.

      “You are probably going to be a very successful computer person. But you’re going to go through life thinking that girls don’t like you because you’re a nerd. And I want you to know, from the bottom of my heart, that that won’t be true. It’ll be because you’re an asshole” – The Social Network
