It's just as well. Seeing into the twisted workings of Zuck's mind isn't going to reassure any normal people

"Oh, you saw an opportunity to save money by firing people randomly and threatening the rest, so you can get almost as much work out of us without paying bonuses or promoting people this year? Friedman[1] would be very proud of you sir!"

Leakers also provide a vital window into company culture for people who may need to decide whether to work there. You never get the truth about what the company and leadership is really like during the Potemkin village tour of recruiting and interviewing.

I completely agree re: Potemkin village tour of recruiting, but, those townhalls are not a window into company culture at all exactly because they get leaked.

The only way to get a candid view into company culture is to have insider friends that can tell you what it's really like to work there.
