Nothing worse than watching the pissing match between the OpenAI DevRel nerd and the Meta Muse nerd on the TL while the bubble begins to burst

we spend so much time/effort recruiting and hiring top talent, but the other 50% is grafting top talent to a high performing team. cool to see @bdistel and @trywindmill team tackle this problem with the best possible tech to help top talent succeed.
Growing companies think their biggest problem is hiring, but they are wrong. It’s only half the story. In reality even the best candidates will fail if they are not set up for success from the start. I experienced this at @yext across a team of 2,500, and today, with the pull of our growing customer base, Windmill is launching the system I always wanted An agentic onboarding system to give every new hire the best chance of being successful as quickly as possible. @trywindmill now has over 250 customers and many of them growing faster than any companies before in human history. Our customers feel this pain viscerally. You spend millions on recruiting and closing candidates only for them to show up to an onboarding based off a couple slides and a Notion doc. Onboarding is one of the most important things a company does. It’s a new hire’s introduction to the company culture and how it runs. And in today’s rapidly changing world, it’s harder than it’s ever been before. Effective onboarding isn't about teaching people everything. It's about getting them to real contribution as fast as possible, with clear goals, regular feedback, and a manager who stays in the loop. Windmill puts an AI agent in charge of making that happen for every new hire, and holds everyone accountable along the way. We’re currently live with amazing customers like @Etched (among others) and it’s incredible to see the results. Every one of our customers I’ve shared this with has raised their hands and we’re including it as part of their subscription. If this is something your team struggles with, we’d love to show you the system that’s helped customers around the globe onboard and ramp their teams 3x faster.

I don’t know anyone who thinks their company does a particularly great job at onboarding new hires it’s one of the most overlooked parts of building a successful business and one of the highest-leverage things to improve upon it is honestly insane that people don't spend more time getting this right given onboarding sets the tone for someone’s entire trajectory at the company how fast a new hire gets productive, whether they become a top performer, and whether they feel supported while doing so can all be traced back to these early weeks today we’re announcing the system that finally allows companies to launch new hires out of a cannon with repeatable and measurable success customers like @Etched already use Windmill to ramp new hires 3x faster, enabling everyone to do meaningful work sooner

Me when i wake up on the wrong side of the bed
I find this so unintuitive. There’s an R in 9 minutes and then one in 23. Why only show one at a time? Why not express it as “9, then 23”? There is space.
