I'm honestly confused about why engineers going to work at Zenefits would "deeply care" about what they're doing. They're writing HR software and aggregating benefits.

It's certainly going to make some HR professionals' and founders' lives easier, but I doubt there are a tonne of engineers who deeply care about it.

Yeah. If someone passionately wants to, say, write code for robotics, they might commit to their employer if they work at, say, Boston Dynamics.

But yes, Zenefits is a relatively bad example for this kind of passion, I assume.
