Curious, would you say FAANG offers the right challenges to stay in the 0.1% or 1% if one started out there? Are they actually in the right place to grow?

depends. If your in at the bottom floor, then you will grow with the company.

If you are lucky and join/lead/get a new project off the ground, then you'll also grow.

If you're just trying to move the dial on a normal project, then its very difficult to make any kind of headway. You are surrounded by overly enthusiastic hall monitor types who will put in more hours than you, or post more than you.
