Inside Palantir
My understanding is that Palantir is running an engineering mill/sweatshop using fresh out of school CS grads (particularly from Stanford). That much of their time is spent simply writing client-specific code that imports and cleans up data from disparate enterprise systems. That its not challenging, innovating, or exciting.<p>Of course this is all anecdotal based on what I've heard from friends and a Palantir engineer I met at bar.<p>Anyone with more insight know if this is accurate?
