The truly brilliant will just win at the new soft skills game as well; and just adapt their behaviour.
They are very used to hiding among us.
The description brilliant jerks; does come over as despising of talent.
- Quarrelsome 7y agoI feel like it more means people who poor social skills are tolerated because they are otherwise brilliant in a given niche.
- gridlockd 7y agoIf you're a truly brilliant person and you're still working at Atlassian, you should be on your way out anyway. Atlassian clearly has jumped the shark. I don't actually have an issue with getting rid of people that really are a drag on team morale with their antics, even when they're highly productive. Perhaps you can find another spot for them, otherwise let them go their merry way and have them be brilliant elsewhere. Having said that, there's a lot of people "on the spectrum" that are jerks not out of arrogance, but because their brain happens to make them essentially tone deaf. With all this talk about "diversity", I hope Atlassian doesn't forget about neurodiversity.
