    I imagine they poached a lot of Spacex engineers by simply telling them “we won’t make you work ungodly hours, nor will we subject you to a narcissistic manchild with no engineering education dropping in on your meetings and trying to tell you how to do your job”

        As much as it’s true, not all company are doing this. There are plenty of good East Asian company with good work life balance, especially newer company that already recognize the issue.

      I bet they poached 0-3 engineers.

      You left out the “but you have to learn Japanese and move to Japan” part of the job pitch. That makes it a harder sell for most people.
