A lot of software companies advertise for "rock stars" and "ninjas" as qualities of good computer programmers. It's puerile.

It's a solid red flag though for anyone looking for a job.

I'm surprised they didn't have some mountaintop monk "guru" as well. I hate that word the most.

They probably put it the job posting, but the mountaintop guru is not looking for a new job.

My boss calls me a guru on some of the work that I do. I get that it is supposed to be someone who knows or is able to do everything about a certain topic, but it always felt a bit insulting because I feel like there's a charlatan edge to the definition of guru. She actually means it as a big compliment. She tells everyone.
