Were Meta employees forced to work for Meta?

Not that I agree with the idea of blaming all Meta employees (e.g. janitors, drivers etc don't deserve the blame), but I do think the ones doing the computer work deserve some blame.

Do all of the hundred thousand meta employees have a say in what happens? Do they even have as much say as citizens in a democracy?

I can agree that the teams working on the specific features have quite a lot of blame. Those asked to implement immoral ads/algorithm stuff. But how many are those people as a proportion of the entire staff?
