Estimated reading time: 5 minutes

Rod Garcia, VP of Engineering, Platform at Slack, shares his food for thought on cultivating a team of software engineers.

Pizza dough is incredibly volatile. The smallest variations in temperature, cooking time, or humidity can result in a gooey or burnt crust. But with the right recipe and variables, you get a perfect pie every time.
