    It depends on circumstances you haven’t provided.

    • Do they know the company is evil?
    • if so, do they agree with what the company is doing?
    • if not, do they have any viable alternate options?
    • if they don’t, do they have any undesirable options?
    • if so, they are choosing known evil over inconvenience
    • if not, then they are stuck

      Let’s take what may be the average software engineer on Lemmy or Reddit. So I would guess:

      • Do they know the company is evil? Yes
      • if so, do they agree with what the company is doing? Some yes, like the cutting edge tech, some no, like the personal data harvesting or undermining democracy.
      • if not, do they have any viable alternate options? Yes, many other options but with less money making.
