Ask HN: How does Stripe work on the inside?

2•casperb•6h ago
I am very intrigued by how Stripe works on the inside. They ship such good quality, are very thoughtful, all while feeling like a calm vibe. Things like: what is their management philosophy, how are there teams structured, how do they communicate internally about big initiatives?

I have heard a few podcasts with Stripe engineers that paint a picture. Jeff Weinstein’s interviews give a little glimpse. Claire’s book gives some info. But I am hungry for more. Would love it if the Collison brothers would write their own book.

But in the meantime: has anyone pointers to books, blogs or interviews about their inner workings? Or anecdotes in this thread are also welcome.
