Can't be toxic culture if everyone wants to work there, and if 95% of people threatened to fire themselves to follow him.
It's toxic be a board member and to write a research paper spilling trade secrets of the company that you work for. Maybe that's why the CEO doesn't talk to you about product launches anymore.

- _giorgio_ 2y agoWait until your discover micro-soft. We should fire the CEO for doing big-software.

- objektif 2y agoIt very well can be toxic. I remember there was a hedge fund with extremely toxic work environment to the point that some bosses were forcing the employees to take female hormones for certain reason (I can’t recollect 5the exact reason). But still people wanted to work there. Money.
- Retric 2y ago> 95% of people threatened to fire themselves to follow him. That sounds extremely toxic on its own. Think about it for a second, someone went around asking people to sign their name on a document threatening to quit if he was fired for cause. Would you be comfortable if this was happening at your job?
- _giorgio_ 2y agoWould you do the same in your company?
- Retric 2y agoYou mean pass something like that around? No. I’d seriously consider quitting on the spot if my boss at any place I’ve worked in the past asked me to sign something like that. Not signing isn’t quite the same thing as quitting, but there’s a clear implication not doing so would seriously damage any long term prospects at the company.

- mycologos 2y ago> Can't be toxic culture if everyone wants to work there Some counterarguments: 1) this only works if information flows out of the organization, but OpenAI has used NDAs to suppress criticism 2) OpenAI seems to me to polarize the people with the technical skills to work there, I think I'd bet that more of them are creeped out than eager 3) people, especially young people, are very capable of believing that being a jerk is the same as being hardcore is the same as being valuable
