Publicly criticizing people & companies you've worked with because you haven't seen eye to eye with them...
Is this the sort of person you'd want to work with or hire to work for you? If it were a company that didn't pay you or were doing something unethical etc then fair enough - blow that whistle... but as far as I can see this is just someone with a chip on their shoulder and a bruised ego who can't move on.
- AtlasBarfed 8y agoPlus sucked and dropped the ball. It's obviously an account from his perspective and ego, but it fundamentally shows dysfunction and poor vision, if some middle level dude is actually doing fundamental redesign and is the only one concerned with cross-app experience.
- shanusmagnus 8y agoI would never, ever hire someone who went on a giant public character assassination of his colleagues and dumped all the day-to-day insider baseball to the world. Call-outs to people who didn't hire him. Jesus, wtf? I don't care how dysfunctional his experience was, I don't care how much of a star he might be, I don't need that kind of worry in my life, and it's hard to imagine someone who would. Be interested to know how his career goes after this.
- cwyers 8y agoThe run-down of companies that didn't hire him and name-checking the people involved put me off the whole damn thing before I even got to the stuff at Google. Who does that?
- joe_momma 8y agoThis is the type of person I would want to work with, and if he had an issue with me I'm pretty sure it wouldn't show up in a twitter rant because I'm the type of person that would work it out in house. There is some responsibility on those managers that they did not consider and should be held accountable for.
- toomim 8y agoI would hire him because he's honest. Honest people produce better work.
