Better think twice if you let your kids get a job in Tech!!!

"Google's strongest assets are the software engineers who work there. They stay because it's an environment that allows them to grow and thrive. If you find talented people who love writing software, put enough of them together, and give them some time, and they'll start identifying and creating new solutions to problems you didn't know you had. But these kinds of people also value a sense of safety. Culture takes years to build, and can break quickly and easily."

Oh that's fu----g rich!

Let me, correct this misinformed fellas biases.
(1) No, google's strongest assets is its patent portfolio and its revenue stream. Employees are merely a necessary expense. Now get back to work!
(2) "...and they'll start identifying and creating new solutions to problems you didn't know you had...". Um ... yeah ... isn't that the definition of product marketing? Creating solutions in search of problems?

Rock on ...
