I’m about to lose my house if I don’t take it, and I know it’s making a deal with the beast, but what options do we have when we’re at the end of our rope and there’s no end in sight ?

At my age I'd gladly work for the Devil. Especially if he pays well and has good benefits.

I too work evil adjacent. It sounds like you're keeping your soul as unblemished as you can.

Thank you kind stranger.It’s a weird space. I never realized how pervasive it is the closer you get to Silicon Valley. I’m gonna try to “do good” from the inside, and take that cash in the meantime.

You're not selling it. You're loaning it. Build up some big tech money, until you can afford to leave.

If you limit your employment to only ethical companies you’re going to severely limit your chances of getting a decent paying job.
My $.02 is earn your money and live your life to share your success in what ever way makes sense.
Good luck with the new gig.
