The problem is a lot of very strong engineers are also very difficult to work with. I worked at Meta too and can tell you the other side of the coin is that people who were too toxic could get canned as well!

Yes, I have worked with the strong but arrogant/snarky engineers. Luckily most of them got canned or forced out because the environment they create around themselves more than negates the positive impact they have. The strongest engineers I have worked with are all humble and kind.
It is their loss, I cannot imagine letting a minor work quarrel live rent free in my head for over a decade. I feel bad enough when something is stuck in my mind for a week.
