Yahoo! and What They Don’t Value
From all that we’ve read and heard about Yahoo!, most of us have this idea of what it would be like to work there…the folks at Yahoo! have not been shy in showing us that they’re generally informal, unpretentious, and well…quirky. It’s a part of their external brand.
From the corporate section of their website, you can view a list of their values. Not a surprising list…excellence, teamwork, innovation, community, customer fixation, and fun. All made sense…but the list seemed incomplete. This is Yahoo! I expect to see something a bit more unconventional (although, they do mention how they love to yodel).
And then I saw it. The link to what they don’t value. It’s quite the list…check it out. My personal favorites: bureaucracy and decaf.
