As someone who has worked with teams from Israel, I'd like to hear more about this if you have good sources.
In my experience, it's been the opposite. They like to play office politics, focus on keeping work off their plate, and they're not really team players.
I may just have a bad sample of Israel tech workers, though.

- fit2rule 8y agoI have also experienced this - in addition, rampant nationalism is an issue when dealing with Israeli companies, in my experience (5 different customers, similar problems..) Where I think Israeli tech startups get most of their mojo, is desperation. Their culture involves so much struggle and effort .. and I think the reaction to it at a personal level, results in the laziness, non-team-playing, political problems.
