I am a part of one such group! It started as a WhatsApp group for all ex-employees, but has now morphed into a discord server. It's a great way to remain connected to friends you make at work, and recently, it has also become a way to share job openings to your network to help laid-off people.

Anybody have connection to the ex-google one if there is? I just left and didn't see it referenced in any of the leaving guides.

Leaving guides? I imagine a pamphlet.

"We wish you well on your departure; as you embark on new adventures your about to open your eyes for the first time.

This may be a shock to some of you as you may discover that the world is more dystopian than you've may of seen from your altered reality mind-implants.

We would like to thank you for your service as a tool at the corporation."

You could rewrite Plato’s Cave for some companies, especially the insular ones where there’s some culture shock when you get into “the real world”.

Plato’s cave needs to be rewritten anyway

time to just acknowledge that its an overly long arduous convoluted setup that can be vastly simplified for the message it creates

if Plato's cave were rewritten today, it would probably be from the perspective of the cave

Tempt me with a good time lmao. "Imagine someone spends their entire life in a dark room with only an ebook reader..."
