I’m surprised to see an engineer admit this during an interview (assuming it is true, sophiebits has mentioned that it she doesn’t agree with this). Presumably this is the time when you talk about how much cool open source work you do?

An engineer at a big company is still just a dude or a gal. Not everyone in a multi-thousand person company will toe the company line or are in lock step.

Lying in the interview might bring them on but if they really want to do OSS and they don’t get that chance.. they’ll probably leave real soon, and then that’s wasted time onboarding someone.
