The funny thing about this is that all the people I know who work or worked at Elastic say it's one of the most dysfunctional and toxic environments.

I wasn't in any way trying to say Elastic must be a great place to work, only that the type of places I'm talking about normally have web sites that look like the opposite of theirs.

Slick websites often cover a multitude of sins - in a dysfunctional company "update the website" is something they can subcontract out and point at.

Look for multiple changes to the website with no consistent plan over years.
