"Still, we do have a hard time finding experienced managers here in Silicon Valley. Most of our managers are homegrown, and we’ve had to teach them to be managers."
Is this such a bad thing? Is it not generally better to have your managers come up through the ranks and create the corporate culture from the inside rather than bring in outsiders to impose one?

That they gave up on hiring people they don't know who have the word 'manager' plastered on their resume tells me they're a lot wiser than most other firms.
