In the Kickstarter video the 2nd guy said he, "left his job at Google, Facebook, and Apple to start Dreamworld." What exactly did he mean by that?

You are grouping it wrong. It is meant to be read as:

> He left is job at Google

> He left his job at Facebook.

> He left his job at Apple to start Dreamworld

All of those are true, can see his linkedin here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/garrison-bellack-1a55b165/

The sentence is poorly structured, but it isn't misleading.

  • Considering his jobs at both Facebook and Google were internships, and he was an SDET at Apple, I would argue the sentence is exceptionally misleading in several different ways.

  • According to this the last company he worked for was cruise... so not a FANG company.

It’s not hard to find his LinkedIn etc. He legitimately did work at (or at least “for”) those companies but seems to be hyping it up a lot more than is probably warranted.
