For another perspective (perhaps a more nuanced/less flattering one), NPR's Planet Money recently did a great episode on Netflix's work culture [1]. I'm not so sure I'd want to work there, but I'm sure it is great for some.
When I listened to this before it made me wonder if Netflix's culture will get same sort of negative treatment and publicity that Amazon has been getting recently.
That was super interesting. Thank you for posting it. The DVD/Streaming split was an especially interesting period for Netflix. I didn't know the back story behind it. For anyone curious, it's at the end.
I was wondering the same thing -- I've tipped a few times but it's always been a couple bucks cash since I've never seen any option for it in the interface. Maybe there used to be a way to tip from the app that they've since removed due to such complaints?
I didn't particularly like the article since I couldn't really tell what the research was about from it, but I'm enjoying listening to Jeremy England's (the guy behind the theory the article discusses) talk that it links to [1]. Until at least 19-20 minutes in it's presented simply enough that a 10 year old could easily follow along with it, then gets into technical stuff that is kind of going in one ear and out the other for me (as somebody who hasn't studied physics beyond a college survey course level).
