From firsthand experience I would have thought their designer hiring strategy would have read something like this:

Buy a company of 30, fire most of them and use the severance pay as leverage to force the designers into staying with Facebook. Wait a year or so until all those designers you strong armed into joining your company quit, then repeat.

Has anyone actually figured out what the retention rate is for FB acqui-hired employees? I'd be interested to know how many people hang around after their shares vest.
