Google/GCP are saturated with subpar engineer/employees, and they just keep hiring. Long gone are the days of actual quality making it through the doors. Google has lost it’s god tier status imo throughout the years. Same can be said for all of FAANG. Where are the actual talent going these days? Startups? Wall street??
I heard the best of the best are leaving Albertsons for Publix
I can confirm this.
I’ve met some of the employees at Albertsons. They carry themselves in a very professional manner. Especially the baggers

How sure are we on this one? I really do believe this is the truth... but I do not have enough people on Blind agreeing with my fact-less statements
I think it’s true.. financial services industry is next to be disrupted and these guys along with citadel are leading the way

I think in every large company you can find incredibly smart people who'll blow you away, and you'll find people who are average (sometimes even sub par). We can talk in averages, but that's practically meaningless in companies that employ tens of thousands of people. All the top tech companies (FAANG + Microsoft + Uber + AirBnB + Lyft) have a lot of very smart people, and I find the endeavor of trying to find where the "best of the best" works, meaningless, because it's primarily a subjective criteria. What's useful in one business, may not be in another business.
Not true at all. The absolute smartest people are: 1. Starting their own companies 2. In academia 3. Have very high up positions in quant firms.
I didn't say the smartest people work in one of these companies, I just said all of these companies have plenty of smart people. And the definition of "best of the best" is subjective. To your point, plenty of smart people don't like entrepreneurship, hate academia and absolutely detest careers in finance. You believe "the absolute smartest" do one of these three things because of your own definition of what counts as smart. That's not universal.
Best of best don't want to work for others
Who told you that? Specialists are considered best by many people. Specialists almost always work for big corps, hospitals, universities, and so on. Most of them are not suitable for doing their own biz. Not saying all the best folks are specialists. But certainly many best of the best are specialists.
If you cannot do business correctly, you are just paying the most talented people to produce revenue loss. It’s never about talent alone. If I can join a lucrative company which does not have a super high bar, why would I bother working for a company with the highest hiring bar and peanuts salary?
