I wonder if this is still the same handbook new hires get today. Would be interesting to see the current version, if there is one.

I wonder if Valve is still the same as described in this handbook, or if it ever truly was.

The section on stack ranking is really fascinating ... seeing how that sausage was made would let you know exactly who is in the secret cabals the handbook says don't exist ;-)

The fact that this handbook was deliberately released to the public (rather than posted on the Valve intranet the handbook refers to) does make it feel more like submarine recruitment/marketing material rather than something actually intended for onboarding new hires.
