Microsoft? Were they firing as many senior folks as possible in 2018 when they announced they would give up on EdgeHTML and Chakra? Or in early 2020 when it actually came together? That’s not my recollection of the FAANG-ish job market at the time these decisions were made.

If you meant Mozilla, they’re a total indefensible trashfire for sure. But I’m not convinced they could have succeeded with their resources.
