Startup Culture: 23 Insights From The NetFlix Culture Deck
- aditya 17y agoDeck being talked about: http://www.slideshare.net/reed2001/culture-1798664 http://www.slideshare.net/reed2001/culture-1798664 It's been around a while, and looks great on paper, however, I wonder if people at Netflix are really truly happy... just like I wonder if people at Fogcreek are really truly happy. One measure of that is the fact that no one ever really leaves Fogcreek, but perhaps that's cuz Joel tortures them if they try?
- dshah 17y agoThis is a great question: One thing I have been surprised by is that few from NetFlix have spoken up (to agree or disagree) with the points in the deck. As for why developers don't leave FogCreek, are we sure they don't leave? We don't hear their names that much, so not sure we'd notice if we stopped hearing one. But, my guess is that attrition is relatively low there. If it's on thing Joel's good at, it's recruiting/retaining developers.
- male_salmon 17y agoI like that this resurfaces from time to time. Here're the comments from when I submitted the link to the deck to HN. http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=740524 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=740524
