Terrible place to work that people grit it out at until they vest and then go some place better off utilizing the name recognition for resume cachet.

Horrible people, doing horrible things sometimes profitably.

I'm not shocked they would make this decision but I am grateful. Keep driving off the best talent. More for the rest of us.

If it's that horrible a place, why do you think the name has cachet?

Honest question.

Not that commenter but to draw an analogy-when I worked at Amazon, the name Tesla had cachet because people coming from there had data that they could survive (or thrive) in an even less structured, higher pressure environment, so they would probably do fine at Amazon.
