Worked at several tech companies, they're mostly personality hires. Working at a tech company =/= smart. Google was particularly appalling and inferiorating because no one actually listened. I hadn't experienced anything quite like it anywhere else. It was a seriously bad problem. In one of my 1:1s with my manager I explained the situation with "Company X" only for her to then ask what was going on with Company X (which I had literally just finished explaining).
I think that all the companies who promote ESG should, at a minimum, have a workforce quota of 50% personality hires.

Are we talkin' here not only about "personality" hires, but also ... diversity hires?
(Including, but not limited to, H1B types?)
I agree, maybe 60-70%
