Yeah,that's all your engineers need alright. Apparently clean clothes and a good nights sleep is not one of them.
- saym 9y agoThis reads like it was written by a person on the hackathon team, who truly believed in his project. I sincerely doubt those two things were all the perks provided. To me, he's just trying to paint a picture filled with drive. One where he planned on working overnight on something in which he believed. No need to insinuate tinder doesn't care about its engineers or draw cynical conclusions.
- nimchimpsky 9y agoNo need to defend a multi billion corporation getting its engineers to do unpaid work either (unpaid overtime I assume), but hey there's a sofa to sleep on - fk that.
