I work in big tech.

IMO, any company could happily hire FAANG quality engineers if they wanted to. They just need to offer the same kind of perks that you'd get from the likes of Meta or Google: career growth, easy team transfer with visa sponsorship, and some solid RSU's.

In my experience, the engineers in big tech are no better. They're just the ones that got through the process, and stayed because of the benefits. I'm a tech lead in my team, and I'm a self-confessed fucking idiot. The Harvard and Oxbridge grads I work with are no better than the ones I worked with that went to the local college.

I genuinely believe that visa sponsorship and remote/flexible working arrangements would be enough to entice many FAANG engineers away from servitude, and towards whatever company offered.
