Agree with all points made. Especially with the first point (engineer hiring tends to be one dimensional) as well as the “your company is who you hire” point - and even the google example given for that point. Google is great at software. No one writes better software than google hands down, but what you/they learn is that it’s not always about how good you code (else GCP would be the #1 cloud platform). Great write up

"No one writes better software than google hands down"

When was the last time you worked within Google?
