If you look at Triplebyte posts they've said before that there is significant bias against enterprise backgrounds. And so they recommend that if you have an enterprise background to try to minimize it in tech interviews.

And there methodology isn't just "enterprise people get hired less", it's there is a large discrepancy between how well they do on Triplebyte internal tests and reviews which are pretty standardized and how often their client's hire them(which is usually a much lower quality, more biased process).

TripleByte hires for startups right? Seems like a slight bias against enterprise backgrounds (a different environment) is kind of expected
As well as apple, dropbox, reddit, and quora.

Also I think that a lot of startups probably resemble enterprise teams a heck of a lot more than they resemble facebook or google.
