Why would it be "not OK" to work at Facebook/META? Do you have an approved jobs list? Is Starbucks ok? What about Amazon? Are mods allowed to work for huge corporate monstrosities like Walmart and Target? Or do they all have to be unemployed?

I think Meta and specifically Facebook is an extremely problematic company that has had a long track record of awful moderation issues among others and I do not personally want somebody involved in any kind of moderator role in those companies moderating things on Reddit. Reddit isn't Facebook, but it's slowly getting there and that's an issue. I think this is a conflict of interests even if they don't get paid for moderating on Reddit.

Yes Starbucks is OK, we don't have a genocide in Myanmar and heightened extremism due to Starbucks as far as we know.
