You clearly haven’t met many people who worked close to Mark or for a long time at Facebook. Mark is not an engineer and he does not understand team based development. The company he created is Kafkaesque with a bureaucracy which uses data to make personel decisions but in the most comically short-sighted ways. Like using LOC to justify compensation rather than impact. Mark created this idiot company that succeeds in spite of itself thanks to social dynamics and savvy acquisitions.

You can downvote me but it’s the reason they can’t make anything good themselves and why Mark’s email is actually hilarious. Google is captive to a similar handicap.
