Square's culture: "That makes us look really bad."

The big question was whether the guy was a designer or not (the feedback sounds like a designer). I run a small design and dev agency and my partner (The creative director) won't let wireframe documents out the door that don't look <i>designed</i> even if in any other way they're perfect.<p>This is the nature of designers, and doesn't, necessarily, reflect a corporate culture.

Funny, I wish Jack's other company would say the same thing right now.

Excuse my ignorance, but what made square look bad? I was expecting something, uhh, embarrassing, and found... A twitter feed?

That's a very misleading title.

This observation reminds me a lot of my time at Twilio. I think it comes down to whether you have an owner mentality.

Took me a while for the actual thing-that-makes-us-look-bad to snap into focus here. Initially I thought it was having banks of monitors around the place full of "We are so awesome". Turns out the hagiography was in the wrong font.
