In this month’s episode we look into the craziness of the unsustainable and ego-driven growth culture of today’s companies. For this we look into the acquisition of tumblr and the book ‘Let my people go surfing’ as great examples of slow and sustainable growth. This and ramblings about whiskey subscription services and Pornhub as a workplace? What more could you ask for?
