Well we know that in this case because you just made it up and added it to the story lol.
And yes, if I knew that the average new hire at Netflix lasted 9 months, I’d still probably take it. I think I’m much better than average and I’d want to test myself at a place that is challenging to work at. If I’m good enough to get a Netflix offer I can probably get another offer in the future.
The average person should do what the average person wants but the upside of a long career at Netflix seems pretty darn high and might make an average person an above average person.
