This makes me love Twilio even more :D I wish more companies would realize the benefit of cultivating talent from within instead of mining other companies for "rockstars"

My first job was at a company that did exactly this. Most of the developer staff came in the same way I did: part time college student software tester/tech support.

It was only after the company was purchased by a company with a very different mindset did I realize that this wasn't universal. This makes me just love Twilio a little bit more.
