That headline didn't kick me much (well, so you can build a website on clojure, duh!) but while clicking through that site I was fascinated by their writing about the company philosophy.

The english translation is horrible but here some highlights from the Jobs-page:
* The day begins at 9:00AM, not later, preferably earlier.
* Release dates are never(!) shifted.
* We believe in the "Broken Window"-theory. Companies degenerate, too. That begins with a paperclip laying around. Consequently every employee must empty their desk before they leave.
Along these lines there's this cultish subtone in all of their writing which is hard to translate. Reading their blurbs gave me the chills like no other company description I've ever read. Definitely has a "zombie B-movie" taste to it.

- radu_floricica 17y agoI don't really have a problem with that. I'm self-employed most of the times, but during the occasional "sortof hired" periods I like to take work ethics seriously. And I definitely don't mind a nice quiet clean office - again, not at all something I'd do on my own, but I definitely wouldn't mind such a policy. There is a bit of zen in 5 minutes of cleaning up at the end of the day.
