Twitter employee here: Always surprised at the amount of ridiculously talented people I work with. :)
- Jare 13y agoYou do realize that almost everyone in tech companies says, thinks and believes the same thing, right?
- seiji 13y agoWhen you're in such a situation, a lot of people don't realize how strange and self-involved it sounds to say things like that. To me, it feels like "We have the best people! You don't work here, so you must not be very good. Therefore, I'm better than you." That's obviously not what they mean, but it strikes chords of jealousy and social exclusion when shouted in a public square. Twitter has always been known for their Super Ego Employees though. Work 12 hours a day, go home, run twelve miles, cook a gourmet dinner, have three dates (sleep with two of them), check email before bed, sleep for four hours, then start over the next day. (with oversharing online humblebrags every step of the way, obviously)
