Comment on Amazon tech workers leaving for other jobs in response to return to office mandate
dan@upvote.au 1 month ago“FAANG” is interesting because it was initially only used to represent high-growth stocks that were leaders in their respective fields. It was originally just “FANG” - Apple was added later.
At some point, it changed to mean the best tech companies to work at. I’m not sure I agree with the list, though. I’d swap Netflix for Microsoft (TC is lower but it’s a more prestigious company and work-life balance is better), and I’d swap Amazon for another company. Not sure. TSMC, Nvidia, or AMD maybe?

It’s funny that Apple was added later given that it is the most valuable company… it’s seen the highest stock growth of any company on earth.

Their stock wasn’t growing a lot a decade ago when the FANG term was coined.
