That's not my point. My point is that Zappos is not a company anymore and hasn't been for almost 15 years. If it had survived during that time and grown to 5k+

That's not my point. My point is that Zappos is not a company anymore and hasn't been for almost 15 years. If it had survived during that time and grown to 5k+ employees then it would be a good example. People keep bringing up hypotheticals but not a single large company with a good culture and good business metrics.
- ethanbond 3y ago> not a single large company with a good culture and good business metrics There are plenty of mega-companies that are very, very different and very, very successful. Koch Industries is a good example. Do they manage with a Silicon Valley ethos? There's a perfectly reasonable explanation as to why there are not other companies in tech who rival these ones, and that's mentioned in my very first post: the consumer software industry naturally lends itself to monopolization, which we also know observationally has been happening.
