Can’t imagine wanting to work for big tech these days lol. These companies had insane reputation in the 2010s. People thought working for Google was like working in willy wonka’s chocolate factory. They really squandered their brand.
Sadly though this was never going to be avoided, sure they’re leaning hard into conservative cult nonsense, but they were still on a downword optics trajectory. Its impossible not to have this happen in capitalism, it will always be inevitable that enshitifcation happens to milk profit from anywhere it can, and that will always look bad.

i think when they rebranded as alphabet, they repealed that corporate philosophy.
Turns out evil is profitable.

Wildly, people still think that about working at Apple, for now. I do see that changing slowly too though.
