According to this chart CEO doesnt make final decisions, so i got 2 questions 1) Who takes responsibility if decision screw ups the company? 2) How effective is that system towards classical hierarchy where CEO/GM makes all critical decisions? #netflix
The sheer quiet demeanor from all the Netflix employees drinking the koolaid into thinking this isn't that bad. All leetcode and no moral compass
Check dance moms. How is that acceptable by this country? This is just a movie talking about such dance shows
You hire the best people, and trust them to make the best decisions. Provide context so they can make decisions, not micromanage them. People make mistakes. If they make the same mistakes repeatedly, fire them. Reed's book provides some examples, like Ted signed 100M deal for house of cards without him knowing. Could HoC have flopped? Sure. But Reed doesn't know content better than Ted. And 100M flop isn't enough to kill the company. If multiple such bets had failed, Ted would have been let go.
“+1,000” here Frustrating part is when there’s not much context provided, you’re expected to make the right decision but your boss deems it otherwise. Sadly not all bosses are like Reed and likewise not all direct reports are like Tes. It’s not perfect. Has worked out pretty well so far and there’s a lot less “bc the boss said so” happening here.
Netflix has the best streaming platform. HBO max is the worst. Amazon was bad but it screwed it up even more with last major update.
CEO having to make a decision is a failure of every level below them.
Don’t take everything Netflix people say at its face value
How is any company different? Netflix is at least more transparent than any company you can name.
The pyramid is a better analogy for a successful company. All the people above can't survive without the base and so they should support and promote that base. Netflix as a tree is perfect. They routinely hack off branches, lose leaves, and it doesn't matter cuz Reed and Ted are solid roots. Everything beyond them is expendable. Hilarious that Greg considers himself the trunk. Flimsy bark at best. Also that tree is watered with the fertilizer of millions of people around the globe. Unstoppable
that legit is hilarious my dude. well done
It's the same fucking thing upside down. Pyramid is a BFS Tree.
Bank Of America still didnt give my money back 🙁
Am a contractor. Am not responsible!! I hate it more than you do.
