A question for the HN folks who work for Meta - Is the pay so good that it makes it worth working for such a morally bankrupt organization?

There are countless large, high paying, morally bankrupt companies out there. It’s no mystery that people continue to work for them.

I’d like to know the well paying and non-morally bankrupt companies. What company out there has a flawless reputation and is paying $400k/yr for senior eng in SV?

I think it's the excitement because it's a morally bankrupt organization. Some people really get off on knowing that the sum total of everything they do professionally is bent around making kids depressed to the point of suicide, and angry to the point of shooting up their school.

I assume that every single person who still works at Meta has done that personal calculus and decided that they fall on the "this is fucking amazing, important work" side.
