One dev I worked with asked the following question at the companies he interviewed at (he got offers from all of them, btw): "What percentage of your co-workers would you like to see fired?"
Most interviewers responded in the ten percent range. One notable exception was a place where they responded with "fifty percent" -- I can't imagine what it was like there.
- ramzyo 9y agoAmazed he got offers from all of them. If someone asked this during an interview I would most definitely not give them an offer. It seems indicative of a vengeful and toxic mentality.
- watwut 9y agoI would give joke answer with random number. There is no way I would give you honest answer to that question, if would indeed wanted to see some of my colleges fired. You are testing interviewer personality, not the company there. Without other information, 50% may mean a lot of bad colleges or arrogant self-aggrandizing interviewer.
