This is a company of really smart people who work really hard—coders, engineers, designers—people whose creativity and intellect is a part of their job.

Smart enough to see their work is causing massive harm on a global scale? I know we all need jobs because capitalism commodifies life, but we CAN choose where we work.

Edit to add: if these very smart people were able to land jobs at Meta, they're likely very employable elsewhere and the CHOSEto work for Meta.
