What does it mean to be co-founder of facebook workplace? Arent you just an employee of facebook?

Yup. Ego massage. Here clickbait.

Paul Graham wrote: never do things for money or ego, but techcrunch clickbaiters writing about facebook employees, sorry, founders, supposedly dont agree.

P.S. this whole title reads like from git manpage generator.

I suppose it implies a leadership role where that department was somewhat autonomous and operated a bit 'like' a founder of a startup. That's what I would assume.

Exactly, Much like Jon Rubinstein being the inventor of the iPod or Panos Panay being the leader of the Surface Group.

It’s some good title inflation for sure

No. Today I realised that I am also a co-founder, in fact you probably are too!

My investors are a bit tough, I get no equity and no seats on the board (there is no board). Vacation and pension’s good though.
