I have no idea if such company exists:

- No politics. If the whole team agrees that something benefits their work then we will try it out. I do not have any respect for managers sabotaging team decisions because of gut feelings. Hard facts count. I can help getting those, just ask.

- Working fully remotely from Europe.

- No BS. No, your video serving backend written in Ruby which does 3k requests/min isn't something to brag about. No, you do not need to brag about your Sales guy who brought in 200$ more revenue this month. Let me fix this bug for you in production and save a few servers of your AWS bill.

- I don't care if it's Ruby/Java/Scala/Go/Erlang/Self Invented Foo

- No Perl.

- No quizzes during interviews.

- Even though I am only a software engineer everyone around me says that I get stuff done. Ownership does not stop at QA/OPS/PROD/Customer Support. I love finished products, not pushing lines of code to git. Empower me.

- Smart colleagues

Looking at these few criterias I should start paying people to find such companies.
