I'm an engineering manager at a Fortune 500 company. The dumbest engineer on our team left for Netflix. He got a pay raise too.

Our engineers are fucking morons. And this guy was the dumbest of the bunch. If you think Netflix hires top tier talent, you don't know Netflix.

I don't understand why nobody here believes you.

There's no reason to doubt what you say, probably people identify with the mistreated one. Why?

Because the idea that all the engineers that work at his large company are morons is absurd. Anyone in that situation that believes that and even more, states it, is just making their own character flaws apparent.

It’s hyperbole, like a teacher complaining to others, “my kids were all crazed animals today.”

I’ve worked with engineers where I had to wonder how they found their computer every morning. I can easily see how a few of those would make you bitter and angry.

Let me think about it...

All the engineers in MY company are morons.

They're just bureucrats.
