I don't care whether my peers feel any stigma. I care about what the hiring manager feels.

I'm convinced that the mid/upper management at the B2B companies I've worked at (and the one defense contractor I've worked at) would not be pleased. OTOH, Google, Facebook, and Amazon probably wouldn't care.

Of course, I've never worked for an adult entertainment network, so I don't actually know.

You'd be wrong, I worked in public sector, for defense and other corp related gigs and it's never been an issue.

What I've learned in my years at Pornhub is invaluable and has made finding a job stupid easy.

Agreed. I would add that the other way around is harder (from defense to other tech industries). There is bias in US tech circles against working in defense and you can't talk openly about what you did depending on the project.
