I haven’t worked at a FAANG but I still hang with people from old jobs. Idk it’s pretty normal to be able to make friends at most jobs

I think you just had bad luck

If so, it's far from just him. I've never personally observed any of that, either. You have "work friends", but those relationships are work relationships and don't translate to outside of work.

I never said that I didn't make friends, I said that I never made a connection that proved valuable in the context of networking, i.e. career growth.
