American work culture is so damn toxic.

If you hire someone you trust them. Otherwise don't.

I fail to see how treating everyone like a miserable inmate at a Siberian gulag is going to help innovation.

I don't think it's about trust, but they're using employees behavior for training their replacement.

It's hilariously fucked up. They pay us O($1M)/yr and treat us like we're working on an assembly line producing Jira story points. And if they don't surveil us carefully enough we might steal a point from them! Or something? Who knows. It's not just Facebook, although what they're doing here is particularly bad, but this ethos permeates the entire American tech industry. With very few exceptions, it's like this at every company.
