Most of the folks I know that work or have worked at Canonical are smart and deeply humble, even worryingly so. I say "worryingly" in the sense that their hiring process seems to weed out people who could speak up, question authority or otherwise show hints of critical thinking. Not my cup of tea.

"Senior" engineers with limited, even naive, understanding of the technologies and tools they're working with, and who are totally uninterested in feedback from, or collaboration with, any of their peers.
