I know this was not the point of your comment, but trust me that one can pass FAANG interviews without grinding Leetcode.

Sometimes it means "giant influential tech companies" in which case you could make a good case that Netflix doesn't belong and some others could be added.
In a career focused context like this I interpret it as "any tech company where most devs easily earn $300k+". So the original FANG plus a bunch of others, including smaller companies like Uber or Splunk.
For sure Netflix doesn’t belong. Meta doesn’t either as of end of 2021 if it’s also about growth alongside influential. Tesla, Nvidia slide in perfectly.
Then there’s a sizable tail end of $100B+ companies and many under $75B with growth potential. AMD, PayPal, Shopify, Stripe, for $100B ones. Square, Atlassian, Datadog, Cloudflare, some cybersecurity firms like Crowdstrike, Okta, would fit in too. These are too small right now though.
