I have worked cross-functionally a lot as well, and I'm baffled how you would make such a matter-of-fact statement. How would you even know? If I do hang out with colleagues outside of work, I will generally not be talking about it as there's lots of potential for weird perceptions of favoritism or cliqueyness.
- wintermutestwin 5y agoYou are right. I should have included the clause "that I was aware of." Considering that I spent a lot of time with many different groups of co-workers (including quasi-social activities), I would guess that I would have noticed a hint of non-work related friendship activities in some large % of those that I was interacting with. I should also note that this was a buyer of startups rather than an actual startup (no matter how much they gave lip-service to the idea that we were supposed to act like "a startup within a megacorp.")
