I think it's more about cohesive team building than anything else. They will spend a lot of money to hire the best, but they expect them to work together well cooperatively. If not, then they don't seem to be hesitant about letting folks go.I'm sad to hear about Jeri leaving because she's kind of one of my heroes. But I could see this being a problem with her. She's a bit of a rugged individualist.

Guest Iain C Posted February 14, 2013 Report Share Posted February 14, 2013 It blows for the 25 people who've been made unemployed, but I'd imagine that with Valve on your CV it won't be too hard to find more work and they're probably loaded from their fat Valve salaries. What's really funny is watching compson throw a full-on wobbly because a business he likes is talking to a business he doesn't like.

I say 'news', when I actually mean the tech blogs that have about as much journalistic integrity as I do.
