> That's a cult relationship, not an employee employer relationship. Some tech companies have abused this mentality to make this feel like a cult relationship, but I see this as just like any non-tech company that has company sponsored soft-ball teams, bowling leagues, picnics, holiday parties etc. I think I understand your sentiment, but I do believe if you were to speak to the people who work for me, they don't feel that it's a cult. Google's research into management had a pretty strong point that managers who took interest in someone as more than an employee were more effective.
