There’s this thing at Netflix (as a company) called the “keeper test” — I’ll leave it untranslated because I’m not sure what the correct option is, but the point is this:
Managers are supposed to constantly ask themselves: “would I fight if my team member decided to leave?”. And if the answer is no, then it’s time to fire them. And this exercise is daily.
They say it’s harsh and builds a culture of honesty in the company. To which there’s an excerpt from the company’s culture code. Here’s a Russian translation with the formal style preserved:
A dream team is one in which all of your colleagues are extraordinarily talented at what they do and highly effective at working together.... We model ourselves after a professional sports team, not a family. A family is built on unconditional love. A dream team, on the other hand, is focused on having everyone strive to be the best possible team member, care deeply about their team, and understand that they may not be on it forever. Dream teams are oriented toward performance, not seniority or length of service.
In my practice, I try right at the start to honestly lay out what you’ll be working on, who you’ll be working with, and point out the most important thing (I don’t have much of a safety guarantee) about intense work and fast-changing conditions.
