Someone at some point said "Google may not be successful for the interview practises they use; they're big enough that they could very well be successful despite the interview practises they use."

Another question is just the sheer scale of the FAANG companies, making things work at that scale is likely to be counterintuitive sometimes.

I just looked it up, Facebook has 2.2 billion users monthly. That's almost a third of the entire planet.

Shit that makes sense for them won't make sense for 99% of everyone else.
