Great insight and objective elaboration into the Zynga culture. "Adapting to thrive" and "treat[ing] crises differently" is what made this guy have a fair-headed and upbeat retrospective instead of it deteriorating into a rant that happens so often.
I that this post reflects more on the author than it does on the organisation. The challenges the author overcame are mostly to do with organisational frictions and processes that make Zynga sound like a terrible place to be for engineers.
Good for the author, not so great for Zynga to lose someone who could tolerate their environment.
Very classy farewell blog post.
Sounds like the right trajectory.
Yahoo! < Zynga < next thing
Product Managers can be obnoxious at times.

I'm the author of the blog (thanks for the upvotes).
Sorry I don't have any commenting on the post itself - but I'll check back on this.
the title is too sensationalized :)
Contrary to my expectation, this post was quite upbeat. Good for him.
