You gotta pick your battles. Part of being in a startup is to be comfortable with quick and dirty when necessary.
It’s when things get bigger, too corporate and slow that companies stop moving fast.
- Sl1mb0 2y agoWe are talking about Netflix. You know, the 'N' in FAANG/MAANG or whatever.
- afavour 2y agoAs a non-FAANGer Netflix has always intrigued me because of this. While Google, Facebook and others seem to have bogged themselves down in administrative mess, Netflix still seems agile. From the outside at least. (also worth noting this post seems to be discussing an event that occurred many years ago, circa 2011, so might not be a reflection of where they are today)

- jldugger 2y agoNetflix is a much smaller enterprise. It got included because it was high growth at the time, not because it was destined to become a trillion dollar company.
