I interpret that as a positive sign. Every manager and company I've worked for has been too slow to fire under-performers.

- chasd00 5y agoIf you've never done it, it's very hard, emotionally, to fire an under-performer. You see someone struggling and you know it's best for your team/company but now you're going to put that person out of a job. I'm not excusing it, but I can see people putting off firing under-performers just to avoid feeling like shit.
- jayd16 5y agoI would say that one possibly toxic element to that is that it could mean that Netflix is not a place to grow. Do not expect help improving. Expect the door. That has other knock on effects like possibly hiding struggles, faking results, etc etc. Does Netflix actually have such a cutthroat culture? I have no idea. The slides are a bit contradictory. They talk about only keeping top talent but then also mention a major/minor league analogy. So what's the culture, really?
