What party culture? I worked at Google in Mountain View and never saw any of this, nor "brogrammers", nor endless mandated/encouraged overtime, or most of the other stereotypes that seem to perpetuate themselves.

even if this party culture was a thing, I'm pretty sure showing up to an interview drunk would still be outside of 'party culture' norms
