    Scott Adams is trash, and also this is so outdated. No top engineer wants to work at Google anymore, just middle management hell and a product you create will most likely be killed within 2 years.

      Scott Adams doesn’t know shit about how the office world works. He probably worked in an office in the 80s for a year and turned that into a whole thing

      Adams has admitted that he hasn’t been in an office in such a long time that he doesn’t know what’s relevant anymore. In classic Dilbert fashion, the admission slipped as part of his defense that his comics were current and he had a finger on the pulse of the technology sector.

      I mean… (ex-)Googlers still think they walk on water, so it’s accurate as far as that goes. IMO, the stereotype was never true that they were all amazing and brilliant. Maybe it’s just the subsector I spend most of my time with where they were less than stellar.

      I know he’s been canceled for being an alt-right magat, but that doesn’t make this less funny to me.

      I mean, you’re still going to be paid a sick package - to say that no top engineer wants to work for Google is just downright inaccurate.
