'Failing up' is one of those well-known-to-insiders Silicon Valley concepts. Past a certain point in your career trajectory (not that I've experienced it), you reach escape velocity, and the gravitational rules of accountability no longer apply.https://www.nytimes.com/2018/10/26/technology/sexual-harassment-google.html …

Having been somewhat involved in hiring loops--FB, startups, etc.--it seems getting honest and representative backchannel feedback on people is hard. Part of that might be that most people are probably in one of three groups: incompetent, OK, and very good (but abrasive).

The incompetent but glib (and who fit a certain profile) can talk their way out of it. The OK stay on a median track. And then the actually effective usually really pleased or pissed off various sets of people. Collecting the data that permits triage is hard.
