Seems like a self-promoting post, I wouldn't really trust it, because when I looked them up this turned up: > Brie Wolfson @zebriez helping founders craft company culture via @koolaidco, musing on http://founder-fodder.ghost.io http://founder-fodder.ghost.io used to @stripe It seems to be tailored for the founders looking for ways to get more free work out of their employees, through "culture". Maybe I'm cynical, but the whole thing reads like they didn't ask for high standards, care and respect in your work, but that they just asked for more of your time at no additional cost. There are studies showing that output quality degrades with more crunch, overtime, and fatigue. Getting a good night sleep has more impact on software defect than writing software proofs. So if you cared about quality, you'd take that into account as well, and you'd respect people's time. Or if I'm less cynical, maybe it's true the author experienced coworkers that were truly good at their jobs, and put care and pride in their work, but unfortunately at the same time had bad respect for their own worth and time. If that's still the only place that felt that pride and care, I can see missing it, and almost not being able to seperate one from the other. In reality, having both is even better, and that's what should be the gold standard, working with people who respect their work and their worth equally.
