4 points by wiggler00m ↗ HN
If [x] = all considerations influencing your decision, for example {salary, culture, location, colleagues, technology, benefits, environment, other factors}

What % of [x] = the company's environmental impact?

I will consider it. I guess I won't work on proof of work based cryptocurrency.
X varies and only matters at the extremes.

No matter how awesome the culture is, I’d never work at Exxon-Mobil.

A job listing from an org seeking new solutions to climate change might make my ears perk but all other factors would still have to meet my standards of sufficiency.

For 99% of prospective employers it’s a non-factor.

Climate impact is the most important thing for any employer to care about it. If they don't care about it hugely how can you ethically be on board?
