- forgetsusername 11y ago>What do you mean by that? To some on HN, MBAs are uninformed miscreants who ruin everything. Everything but engineering is a waste of money.
- coderdude 11y agoI know. Cheap shots should involve more work, though.
- saosebastiao 11y agoIf it involves more work, it's not a cheap shot :) Really though, I don't have anything against what he said, nor against MBAs (...well, some MBAs maybe). It was just poking fun at vacuous sounding corporatespeak.
- jsprogrammer 11y agoJust like the comment it was in response to. >We're not just payroll and payments. Gusto is all about empowering companies to put people first.
- seiji 11y agoThe vague mission statement of "empowering companies to put people first" that could mean literally anything from genocide to running a grocery store.
- mgkimsal 11y agoexactly. which people? employees? customers? someone else?
- falsestprophet 11y ago"Gusto is all about empowering companies to put people first." This could mean anything or nothing. But he knew that already
- coderdude 11y agoIn the context that it was said, it's not very ambiguous. It's obvious what they do and you can see what they're branching out into. It sounds vague and like corporate-speak on first gloss but it does make sense.
