> Paid very well

They pay well... if you're and engineer. And male.

From the article I linked above:

"I was promoted to a more demanding managerial position. But there would be no raise. “You’ve already doubled your salary in a year and it wouldn’t be fair to the engineers who haven’t had that raise” (never mind that a year earlier engineers had been earning anywhere from $70,000 to $140,000, as opposed to $38,000 like I had)"

$38k doesn't go terribly far in Silicon Valley. After doubling it with a promotion.

And I direct you to my other replies, where I yet again point that I didn't say it was there NOW. Instead, we face a very bad risk of them becoming a Company Town in the future. They are exhibiting dangerous warning signs, and nobody in power even attempting to stop even their flagrantly illegal activities.
