- alehul 8y agoAnother great point about the tech boom and venture funding: a place can be great to work at without necessarily having a successful product. I'd expect those two premises to be highly correlated if not for funding.

- mythrwy 8y agoIt looks like a very annoying place to work to me. Big fan of gravitas in the workplace. Probably because I'm over 40 (thus not qualified for "diversity") but wow, how does any work get done from the photos? Looks like something straight out of my elementary school in the 70's.
- fipple 8y agoWell the Googles of the world are absolutely pulverizing the IBMs of the world so it’s really the people with “gravitas” who are playing House and the “elementary school” students who are getting shit done.
- mythrwy 8y agoMeh, to be fair I don't want to work at an IBM either. Nor a Microsoft. Guess truth be told I like working from my couch. No diversity teams blowing soap bubbles. No "Corporate accounts payable, Nina speaking". Limited opportunity to play political games over Slack. Although we will see if Asana lasts as long as IBM. Guessing not. And they seem to be a little further along the social engineering scale than Google is.
- therealx 8y agoIsn't your couch the ultimate lack of gravitas for a workplace? Not throwing shade just didn't see how your two comments connect.
- mythrwy 8y agoCompared to those pictures, my couch is a veritable church pew. If people enjoy working in that kind of environment, fantastic. But it really looks like it would drive me bonkers and I'd long for a bland cubical with a neckbeard neighbor who didn't really like people.
