It doesn’t mean grads are excited about working at Facebook, it means they accept an offer for the sake of common sense.

This will most likely work to Facebooks disadvantage long term however; Facebooks workforce can’t only be motivated by money.

There was certainly a time that people would’ve took way less money to be part of FB because they believed in the product and mission, which is now a joke.

Agreed. Also, now if any other Big-N company is willing to offer about the same compensation as fb, people will be more inclined to leave fb because of the joke their product and mission have become.
