Ask HN: Is it a career negative to join Meta now

I see a lot of negative press about Meta on HN(and frankly most news media) and that leads to this question.

If I were to join Meta now, would that harm my prospects down the line. Would a hiring manager hold it against me that I joined Meta at a time when so many unsavory details were known about the company.

For some context I work at another FAANG (have worked at a couple ) and have concerns about Meta from what I read about it.

Except that the other outfits have had their warts too and ultimately what matters I believe is your team and management chain and from that perspective believe Meta would be a step up from my current situation.

Love to get some opinions on this
