> If you are, then personally I think it is really bad form for the other team members to be speaking in a foreign language when the native English speaker is present.

It depends, if it is in a meeting, they should use a common language that everyone understands (English). However, if they are just talking to each other in the office WITHOUT talking to you, they can use whatever language that is comfortable to them. You are not part of the conversation.

I think the problem here only is that why the person in a FAANG company cannot communicate in English when needed.

You are not part of the conversation

And you can not become part of the conversation, which would not be the case if the language was the native one.

Very rude and exclusionary.

Do you expect to be part of every conversation that you eavesdrop in the office?
