$Palantir Technologies Inc.(PLTR)$ isn’t just a company - it’s a founder factory.
Palantir has produced a remarkable number of founders and technology leaders: from founding startups like Anduril (Brian Schimpf, Trae Stephens, and Matt Grimm) and Affirm (Max Levchin and Nathan Gettings) to leading consequential organizations such as OpenAI (Bob McGrew - Chief Research Officer) and Fox (Melody Hildebrandt - CTO).
CobiBGantz and I dig into Palantir's unique culture and unpack the key ingredients that make it so:
1. Uncompromising Talent Bar
2. Mission Orientation
3. Forward Deployed Engineering: Deliver Outcomes, Not Software
4. Seek Truth: Solve Real Problems, Not Shiny Ones
5. Define a Shared Enemy: United The Team
6. Flat Structure: Direct Access To Leadership
7. Radical Transparency: Learn From Everything
