Have any large companies stopped testing for marijuana?

It is confusing.
While the Federal Govt, as a whole, does not require drug testing, they also do not prohibit it. And several departments DO require testing as part of their own practices

And the federal govt has a very explicit set of guidelines that define what an acceptable drug test entails (very long PDF). So I can imagine that any company that does business with the govt is gonna drug test just to be on the safe side.

I just heard that the son of a friend of ours, who works in Colorado, basically can’t hire anyone because it is a national company which requires drug tests and no one passes. I don’t think they do government work.

I got tested at Intel but not at Sun. That tells you everything you need to know about the differences in culture between those companies.
