Modi is the worst dictator!
It feels like Ethics aren’t discussed enough on here in regards to the tech industry. Disclaimer: Yes I work at Microsoft, and I am probably part of the issue as well. TC: 265K YOE: 4 L61 It’s pretty clear that a lot of tech companies are contributing to societal inequality. Amazon warehouse workers pee in bottles and are on food stamps. Meta is spreading misinformation and is radicalizing boomers everywhere. Microsoft is not clean either. I understand a job is a job, and I can’t blame any individual for taking a high paying job at like Meta. But, I think the days of saying “I’m just a grunt, I’m not contributing to these issues” as a tech worker are over. We may be well paid, but we are still workers. And we need some class consciousness and solidarity.
There are no clean hands
I’m reading n reading Op but failing to understand ur point which is maybe you want to discuss Ethics ?
"Radicalizing boomers?" You mean to become conservative? If you think the free exchange and consumption of information is wrong, then yes you are part of the problem. Ethics? MicrosoftFacebookGoogleApple public relations firms think they promote ethics by encouraging social degradation, i.e. alphabet soup ideologies, sex change surgery on kids, and race wars that end up hurting the most vulnerable in our society. It sounds like you what you're actually looking for is corporate fascism. Dude, it's already here.
Lmao if you think hearing about gay people is social degradation you can fuck out of here homophobe
@wrnO81 lazy strawman
This post is unethical.
Everything is profit and money and one need to keep street happy.
Pretty sure boomers ain’t the only ones being radicalized. Get a life fam
Awww sounds like I struck a chord? How exactly do I have no life?
I’m a millennial but I’m sure my parents don’t give two 💩 about your perspective either. I could be wrong about you not having a life but having time on the weekend to write and share this incoherent and poorly reasoned post is not a good start.
Lol I don’t know if you’re wrong, but can you explain to me how Amazon’s practices are unethical? Field workers get paid several dollars more than minimum wage in every market they are in, have benefits, and if you look at Field leadership most started on the floor or right out of college. I would recommend picking a specific issue (does Amazon impact local businesses, and does that degrade the fabric of local communities?). I am a lefty but this reads like a clickbait post, so you probably will not get a reasonable discussion about ethics.
op is a dumbfuck. move along
Get money, then you don't be a slave to money Then do work that is not as detrimental or has some other value
LOL. This isn’t about me getting paid enough or feeling comfortable with my work. Sure I can do that but then Amazon and Meta will continue to hurt society. I care about more than myself
