Some may not care, but some might I guess. The day I joined Fitbit I started getting tons of recruiter messages on linkedin (which I rarely got beforehand). Was wondering how it might look on my resume.

I'm not going to address those point except to mention they're generally inaccurate. Scale went down the drain...what? Curious if you can name those startups? My opinion is that's a pretty stupid move by them for grouping all engineers together based on some perception of the company. If by avoid you mean reject outright, that is.
Op where are you from? Just curious
San Diego
It's a good enough brand, where what matters most is what you did there.
Very true
It's fine. Other companies are better but if you don't have those on your resume it's a good start. Also if you're a hardware focused role, it's better as it's one of the few household name hardware companies in the area
If you have any well-known company on your resume and are in engineering, you’ll definitely get interest Think of how recruiters do their jobs and how they source candidates. They probably just go on LinkedIn and search up employees from top companies that fit the roles they’re trying to fill Recruiters also love to search by keywords. I worked a little bit with SAP Hybris so I have it listed on my LinkedIn and I get SO MANY recruiter messages about Hybris jobs, just because developers with knowledge about it aren’t super abundant
That actually makes a ton of sense. Definitely, recruiters probably start out by looking for big companies like that
