It's weird that Devs find this so surprising, other than that we are mostly a bunch of introverted misanthropes. I mean - you spend more time with your teammates than you do with your spouse, it's not hard to understand why friendliness is ranked as high importance. If you've ever REALLY worked with a team full of assholes, you'd get it too. If not, maybe you were one of the assholes. That said, this isn't a question of whats best for the firm, it's what people prefer in their work environment. Goes along with higher pay, less hours, better benefits.
