The author calls his previous employer "Google" but current one "Meta". A great illustration of the power of branding.

So here you made me think for a moment if I was being inconsistent, but no, I don't think so.
You see, my employment _is_ with Meta now, and was with Google before — it never was with Alphabet, of which Google is a fully owned subsidiary of.
I think the distinction makes sense, among other things because with few exceptions, going from one Alphabet subsidiary to another requires a full interview cycle, not just a transfer request.
