> I'm in senior leadership, and have made it clear that anyone who has worked on these products should not be hired.

I do not like gambling or the prevalence of gambling products, but this is not a good thing for you to do.

You should not ban people from your job for reasons that are not relevant to the job you're hiring for. People take jobs for many reasons, including some times simply needing to take the first job they can get in order to pay the bills.

People also change their minds. Working for a gambling product company doesn't mean the person is still pro-gambling.

Having your job eligibility depend on your boss aligning with your personal morals on topics that have nothing to do with work is terrible

I'm surprised there's so much support for this in these HN comments.

Do you really want your labor enriching someone you think is a bad person? Do you want someone whose values go against yours being in a position of power over you?
