Can you elaborate on Valve? Why would Valve not do this? What makes it different?

  Cause it is a proper company run to solve problems and not make money out of selling vaporware. It also doesn't hire in bulk and has a culture which is a step away from all this madness.

  Not that I agree with the above comment, but Valve is a private company. Hence, they would not be beholden to shareholder pressures. Perhaps the argument the posted intended was to never join a pubic company?

    > Hence, they would not be beholden to shareholder pressures. Private companies have shareholders & related interests/pressure as well.

      True, but Gabe Newell owns over 50% of Valve so I'm guessing the pressure in this case is more limited.

        Even that wouldn’t explain google and meta as the founders own over 50% of voting shares.
