Weird, it was the opposite for me. Went from 60 hours in consultancies and low tier to 30ish at FAANGish. Remote probably helped with COVID, but the output is consistent.

I can see that. My point is that there are many reasons for not wanting to work at a FAANG, even for someone like me who has worked in one and could work, I guess, in others. My reason is that I make enough money currently not to want to work there. I was working a standard 35-40 hours per week at a FAANG. There are also many others in non-FAANG tech who make half my salary and work much more. And maybe I will be one of them at some point, there are no guarantees in life!
