> Stripe turns down candidates with outstanding engineering talent if they don’t fit with the team’s culture. Each candidate must pass the “Sunday test:” if this person were alone in the office on a Sunday would that make you more likely to come in and want to work with them?

Stripe's Sunday test and my Sunday test are slightly different: "Would you come into the office to hack on a Sunday even if the servers weren't on fire?"

If the answer is yes, you know you've got a burnout risk.
