Ironically, the military seems to foster a more liberal culture than the tech industry. I have been reprimanded for disobeying orders a few times, and seen colleagues put on PIPs and fired after a couple of months. Most "fast-growing" companies resemble an absolute monarchy.

Which explains why the tech bros are currently trying to install what's effectively a monarchy in the US federal government. Companies are inherently non democratic, so it's kind of bad that they're trying to install the same thing federally.
- ninalanyon 2y agoThe founding fathers installed the monarchy. They simply thought that they could control it by making it non-heritable. The US president had more power than King George from the very beginning and certainly has more now.

- rdtsc 2y ago"Fast growing" companies pretend to be the friendly, accepting, and understanding, but usually comes with a dark side where it's hard for them to point out small issues early and correct them. Because that's "negative" and doesn't jive "we're nice and friendly" image. So they keep sweeping issues under the rug until it's too late, and even then, they can't let someone go and need to pretend like they really want to keep them with PIP, while everyone knows it's bullshit to cover their ass, and person will be 100% out of there.
