Could you elaborate on self-replicating talent machine (or link to posts if available)? Does that mean their talent attracts other talent from outside or their culture and process help develop (already talented) people working there into greater heights, or something else?

It sounds really interesting and might benefit others as well.

Laszlo Bock, Google's former head of HR, covered this idea in his book "Work Rules" [1]. It's a good read.

(disclaimer: I work at Google, although I read the book before I joined. I remember initially thinking the book was just corporate PR, but later I had the opportunity to see firsthand how accurate it was)
