I seriously don't get why Google and Facebook got that brand name. 95% of engineers there are part of the pack and do mainly mindless jobs with very little impact. They are the mot "Sheep-ish" people I know, convinced that working for Google/Facebook give them something to brag at dinner parties.

The top 5 rockstars % (the ones they really want to attract with big money) are the ones taking all decisions.

I don’t know if I’m a sheep or a rock star but I do know I enjoy my work and probably get paid more than I could get anywhere else.
