Re:Former Meta staffer reveals she had to ‘fight for work’ by fmajid on Thursday March 16, 2023 @08:57PM (#35191283)
No. There was a data science conference in the Western US a decade ago. Mark Zuckerberg showed up unannounced, with a job offer for every single attendee.

The strategy comes straight from the top, and it makes perfect sense. Even if they are not fully utilized, even a FAANG salary is small potatoes compared to what top-tier talent can bring to a company. Think of it as the HR version of what VC do, invest in many people knowing 90% will fail to live up to their potential, because the 10% that do more than make up for it.
