It&amp;#x27;s a nightmare.  I&amp;#x27;ve quit jobs just to get away from people before.&lt;p&gt;One of my top criteria for accepting a job is whether I like the interviewers.&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#x27;m not hardcore in the &amp;quot;asshole geniuses should die&amp;quot; crowd, but if you are a miserable person to be around, go find a job where you work solo.  Don&amp;#x27;t drag your whole team down.</text><parent_chain><item><author>everdrive</author><text>&amp;gt;Hmmmm. The article drips with anger and cynicism, and hints at a few bitter opinions like &amp;quot;...companies I had ideological issues around...&amp;quot; It&amp;#x27;s hard to judge someone from an article, but if 5% of this sentiment bled through in an interview, I&amp;#x27;d take a hard pass too. I just don&amp;#x27;t want to work with difficult, unhappy people.&lt;p&gt;I find a sentiment like this pretty scary. Being competent at a job is not relevant, but just whether or not the interviewer subjectively likes you.</text></item><item><author>stickfigure</author><text>Hmmmm.

And it is as important, if not more so, than their ability to program. It&amp;#x27;s certainly a harder thing to teach.&lt;p&gt;(as for this specific quote, I think it&amp;#x27;s fine to have issues with what companies are working on... But the rest of the article really does just come off as bitter and angry, and for what?)</text><parent_chain><item><author>everdrive</author><text>&amp;gt;Hmmmm.
