> It's also true that people get fired without warning.

Who decides who is getting fired and for what kind of reasons do people get fired for at Valve? Like how does that process work from top to bottom? Does a general consensus build among some of the people who've been there longer and they start plotting your downfall behind your back, take it to Gabe Newell and then you're out the door?

I've read about this before[1] but was curious if you had any more insights.
