Like how Google bought Doubleclick and definitely not the other way around?
- miningape 3y agoOh if only - it seems like somehow the shittiest culture manages to out survive the other and entrench itself inside the business. I know HN likes to blame this on the stock market forcing short term revenues but I think it goes deeper - the good "culture" employees actively flee these environments. Boeing acquiring McDonald Douglas is a classic example of this exact scenario: "McDonald Douglas bought Boeing with Boeings money."
- soraminazuki 3y agoBoth can be true at the same time, though. With one reinforcing the other.
- vundercind 3y agoHeh, interesting example because DoubleClick kinda did take over Google.
