Yep - I found lots of the grammar on the site jarring, and little things like 10$/month - the convention is $10/month, and it looks really odd. You should get a couple of hours of a copywriter's time to go over it, there's lots of little quirks.
Used to think that, but after you contribute to a pharma company that's out to "improve patient's lives" by waiting until they're on their death beds and using that leverage to extract as much capital as possible...you start to change your mind, especially when you're not even decently compensated for fucking sick people over.
There's no requirement to or expectation that they will be. Papers are not required to present any kind of balance, as long as what they say is broadly true (external pluralism), for a given value of true. The broadcast media (the free-to-air ones) are required to be demonstrably internally pluralistic, to show a variety of sources and viewpoints within their output - and that applies across BBC, ITV, Ch4 and Channel 5, but not Sky News; goes back to when Radio came on stream in the 1930s.
Hahaha I had one of those yesterday. My profile lists my company I started for side projects, then my role as a specialist at my actual employer. I got an email trying to find out if I was interested in more jobs like {{founded_company + specialist_role + employer_name}} all run together.
I think that's kind of right - it's the explicit awareness of hierarchy or other structures that works. (I'd argue that actually you can have hierarchy-less (sp?) organisations, but they require particular consideration - but you'll still overlay other assemblages - social hierarchies or whatever, on top of it. I did a bit responding to the Tony Hsieh email from our perspective as a company that's trying to implement Holarchy right now: http://blog.granttree.co.uk/post/117079306181/zappos-two-poi...
Ricardo Semler - Maverick is a good one for non heirarchal approaches.
The AES case study of holarchy is v interesting.
Swombat's blog (easily findable!) is a trove of material on startups and moving from corporate to startup, as are the Granttree and Escape The City blogs.
