> The fact that they are employees is a dead give away - if they are really talented, they would not be working for someone else

I don't know much about FB employees but can assume there are really talented based on the amount of traffic they handle, and the software they release(Cassandra, Thrift, HipHop).

I don't see a relation between being working for someone else and talent. Rob Pike, Ken Thomson and many more work for Google. By your generalization, they aren't really talented?
