Hate the term Rockstar. Also team is my family. Fuck off with that
My team is my family till I run out of VC $ and can’t afford a pay cut because I’ve got a flamboyant lifestyle to maintain.

Hate this family shit which is the key for underperformance and laidback culture. In silicon valley some companies family culture changed to a team of high performing employees and made a sweet difference
