I’d argue that most people are aware of the working environment at Apple (which has changed, by the way-I know many people who 9-5, though many of those close to deadlines still do work more) and the gaming industry, just as they know what it’s like to work at Facebook.
Unfortunately, I don't know if those new grads realize, when they work in a "sexy" industry, that they are basically paying, with either salary or working conditions, for the privilege. It seems like many don't realize this until a couple of years in, when the shine wears off...
At least at Facebook, you're starting out with your eyes open and know what you're getting into.
