> notoriously unproductive

Pretty crazy this is the first comment stating the obvious in a forum full of programmers with friends at Twitter.

Truly the most bonkers underemployed place. Engineers with debilitating levels of ADHD not taking their meds, doing 2 hours of meetings a week and then spacing out on internal tools no one uses. People who come and complain about harassment and abuse, relentlessly campaigning against their bosses’s priorities from day one, and like hardly making a single commit a week.

It’s CRAZY. I have never heard from people paid so much who do bonafide so little. And they’re OBVIOUSLY dysfunctional. You can talk to these employees for 1 minute and realize they need to be fired, it wasn’t necessary to do an analysis.

Personally I would close down the non SF offices first. Then I would move the best ads people from NY to SF where they can be bettered monitored. Then it will be fine.
