meta doesn’t only have high level jobs

The majority of their hires are experienced profiles. "Bog standard" worker in Meta is already a pretty high paying job as entry level work is massively outsourced.

all who work there are some kind of imaginary elite?

That's not at all what i'm saying. I'm saying if you can land a job at Meta then you can absolutely find a job elsewhere. There is nobody in the world who is stuck between an empty belly and accepting a position at Meta. They're just stuck between making good money somewhere, and making better money at Meta.
