I get the impression that your definition of "Silo" isn't the industry norm I've experienced. The classic example is Apple. But you mention three companies that are managed very differently, both from Apple and each other ( and yes, I have first hand experience -- do you?) so I don't really get what it is you're trying to express. If I were interested in hiring you, my impression at this point would be that you've only experienced toxic cultures and fraternity style leadership where the only thing executives care about is their own career, and be concerned that you perhaps fall into that category. The common quality in the best leaders that I've worked with is trust, real trust, down to the most junior IC. I've seen 3000 people orgs have a tighter social web, where press leaks don't happen, where teams aren't worried about getting stabbed in the back by other teams, than in 10 person or 30 person or 100 person orgs. There is nothing in the industry that necessitates keeping our plans secret from one another when all our business cards share a common logo. Instead of being controlled by fear -- of distraction, sabotage, whatever -- be liberated by the trust that bad actors will be weeded out swiftly.
