It really is a shame. As someone who struggles with impostor syndrome regularly, all this ninja-rockstar-10x nonsense is unsettling enough that I dread the idea of throwing myself into the Bay Area food chain. Seems like it risks selecting for bravado and bragging and pretending to be more than one really is.
- WalterSear 11y agoThey are job descriptions. Tech job descriptions often try to demonstrate the positivity of the work environment with an overly exhuberant tone of 'we're excellent, your excellent, everything's excellent. IMHE, in day-to-day life those terms are overwhelmingly used ironically. But, then again, I have made genuinely hospitable work environments my first priority in employment opportunities.
