That was a terribly written article.

It's disappointing that a mean comment with no content gets upvotes.
The point was to create values early on and test potential candidates against them before hiring. It was written in an abstract fashion which might not be what you're used to.
How so?
I wouldn't call it terrible, but it was entirely platitudes. Everyone already believes company value systems (more commonly called "company culture") matter, and that's all that's being said here.
Most people think company culture is important in the same way they think life is fragile. Everybody agrees and people rarely act accordingly.
