In my experience "culture fit" is extolled by executes as an excuse for selecting "compliant" employees who won't question their BS.



I was exited once for being a bad culture fit where I had questioned and organized against the bullying of employees to work for free on their stat holiday, and it was labor day for crying out loud.


In a way you were a bad culture fit even if that’s not a culture anyone should want to fit.


That's basically what parent poster said, with the most negative possible spin. Yeah, maybe the leader of the company doesn't want to put up with argumentative bullshit, and just wants to do cool and fun stuff with people who are excited to do it.
