After working in organizations where terrible performance is tolerated, this seems like a breath of fresh air. We've all worked with some asshole/fuck-off who we wish someone would fire. It starts to eat away at morale. I'd rather take my chances an not have to work with the problem children.

Unless that person is your boss, then good luck. How hard could management be at Netflix? You don't need to coach up people when you can just fire them. The more you delegate, the better you look. Sounds like tenured professors who tell you to just figure it out.

...until you find out that you are the terrible performer. The Dunning-Kruger Effect is real. You may very well be that low performer everyone else wishes someone would fire, and you wouldn't even know. I'd take having to tolerate a useless chucklefuck on my team over living with a Sword of Damocles constantly hanging over my head. Actually, what I really want is Japanese-style lifetime employment...
