Reply to comment by miltonfriedman2028 in 10,000 Google Employees Could Be Rated as Low Performers by ThisIsNotCorn

If you have below average employees it says more about your hiring practices than anything. Don’t you take pride in hiring above average talent? Or do you hire bottom feeders for below average wages and get below average results?

We pay $200k+ at junior levels, so I don’t really think it’s bottom feeders.

There’s only so much information you can glean from 30-60 minute interviews, and some people are good BS’ers and just turn out to be lazy when they start. It’s unavoidable.

Plenty of people with top grades, from top schools, and relevant previous experience at a great company, who join and then how low quality of work and productivity, regardless of training / feedback.
