We are spiralling out of control with carbon emissons, disease, social unrest, and unimagineable levels of debt. Does anyone have hopes for the future - ecologically, economically, socially, or in any other way?

Same here. Joking aside, this just shows the perception about FB vs what people working at FB believe in and want to accomplish, are pretty far detached.

More people are having one or zero children.

Perspective: someone living during the Bubonic plague might have asked the same question. Human history is filled with disasters the enough people survive, propagate and it happens again.

I agree with the destructive issues, wasn’t trying to be flippant. And species extinctions are not reversible either.

Parents want to send their children back to school not only for educational purposes but also for social interactions. I do understand that many children want that interaction with their friends and teachers. But I don't think it is going to be quite as rewarding as many think with social distancing and face coverings to be safe. No high fives, pats on the back, sharing earbuds to listen to a new song, or consoling an upset friend. Even facial expressions are lost. Tough times.

Our team morale is pretty bad and we’ve had a couple of people leave because of it.

Product Design Engineer, interviewing at Apple (Cupertino) and at Meta (Seattle/Redmond). Not at the offer stage yet, but I'm contemplating where I would relocate with family.
No idea about team/culture/stability differences yet.

The non-work factors I'm debating are:
1. Cost-of-living (housing!). Could probably afford a nice ~$1.25M SFH in Seattle suburbs sooner than a fair $1.5-2M near Cupertino.
2. Public School quality. Unsure private will be affordable.
3. Weather/region: activities

I’m looking to leave my job and have 2 interview processes going on at the moment.

The other is a great opportunity for me to lead a team and a whole program with a little less money than the other role. Would it be bad if I join the 2nd role then leave in a few months for the 1st one if I got an offer?
