The MAAGMATENN ms, aapl, adobe, goog, meta, amzn, twttr, eBay, netflx, nvidia.

Ok that’s just forcing it.

Drop an A for an E and you could have MANAGEMENT, everyone already knows about the great pay there!

[mr90210]

Adobe? Yeah that’s forcing for sure.

Look at the five year stock growth, dark horse among the tech companies for sure

The stock is good sure, but I always figured that FAANG was more about their reputation as employers than it was about their reputation as an investment.

I think it's the opposite actually. I remember FAANG being used as a reference to hot stocks.

Investopedia seems to claim the same: https://www.investopedia.com/terms/f/faang-stocks.asp

Personally speaking, I do not go to companies for clout but I'm also not interested in bragging to other engineers in the form of xGoog xUber etc

I go for the stock price because those RSUs are my retirement plan.

I often forget eBay even exists.

I know some people there who are payed very well and ride the shuttles from the same pick up spot the FAANG buses pick up from in SF, near Castro.
