Not actually evil
The company has many socially positive projects going on constantly that go underreported in the media. Everyone knows that the culture, compensation, and intellectual stimulation are all top-end, but the main knock is that the company is “bad”. I think there are a lot of valid critiques out there, but hardly any media article takes a favorable perspective on Facebook into account.
Sometimes the work across the company feels so wide and ranging that it can feel like you aren’t making much of a difference.
Keep investing in managers with high emotional IQ.
