    Everyone says this, but I've literally never worked in a group that would kick out a brilliant jerk. https://42hire.com/the-biggest-mistake-i-ever-made-4f0e2e32ed2a#.dil4gjy8z …pic.twitter.com/fj9Zkw0SrX

        Including the group where all but one person in my cohort left; even after that, management two levels up had to step in to change things.

        The short tenure of tech workers obscures a lot of management problems.

        One problem here is that we're all assholes to some degree (same with talented), making it harder to define the firing threshold

        agreed, but I can recall more than one case where every IC agreed, but management was in love with the jerk's potential.

        brilliant jerks have been at least one of the causes in leaving *everywhere I've left*. It's even been the dominating/primary reason

        - I did! I was the jerk, and that move was as good for me as it was for them.

        .@danluu So... what's the solution? The 10x's mentality is utterly harmful. And Idk if it's even all that accurate.

        Letting them go is one problem, not hiring them in the first place is the other.

        if you don't practice what you preach, then what you practice or what you preach, is wrong.
