Study reveals common personality types at Facebook, Google, Apple, other tech giants - San Francisco Business Times

The study analyzed more than 4,300 responses from employees and managers at each of the six best-known tech companies, using sliding-scale Q&As to gauge traits like intellectual curiosity, risk-taking and attention to detail, along with employees' attitudes toward their employer. The study also breaks out employees and managers to help identify top-down trends within a company's management structure.

Facebook, despite blockbuster acquisitions like the Oculus Rift VR, has a rather conservative core culture according to Good & Co's respondents: The social networking company rated last in 'intellectual curiosity' and 'adventurousness', with managers at Facebook ranking 30 percent lower than employees in this category. A similar effect was observed at Google, with managers revealing lower levels of curiosity than other employees, and rather acting as a 'steering wheel' for workers.

That may be a sign that "the company has matured" and is more carefully managed, Birwadker noted. "A lot of what you see externally is reflected internally," he said, with a company's core product development serving as a manifestation of its internal culture.
