Which big tech company tech stack is most enjoyable/effective to work with? Which is most relevant/transferable for startups outside of big tech?
Tech stacks aside, which companies overall have the least amount of peculiar-to-here stuff you have to deal with? IMO Apple has a lot culture-wise, even if it's not all in the tech stacks.
Meta: Right now I'd say React and PyTorch are good libraries, but I don't know how much people at Meta actually use them.
Amazon: AWS is used by many startups, and it's my understanding that Amazon uses their own products internally.
Apple: if you work on iOS, there's some transferability in Xcode knowledge, Swift/Objective-C skills, and framework familiarity to app development.
Appreciate comments explaining why, for each company.
TC: $275k

All others have proprietary tech which is not useful outside, concept will be useful of course.
That is why in system design they donโt care about specific tech.
Whet can be done to overcome this? Working on open source systems that is parallel to systems at work? Like borg vs k8s
Also tech stack lock in is employee retention
Also Netflix has developed some really good open source projects which are industry standards โ Zuul, Eureka, Hystrix, Ribbon
Personally I find it hard to imagine proprietary solutions being so much better (for engineer experience, not product) than open source ones these days so as to overpower the transferability value.
