"Much of the next influx of ideas to Sand Hill Road will come not just from former Google employees, but also from groups of former Google employees who are planning their future companies over free sushi and Diet Coke late at night in Google cafeterias. And based on the quality of the thinkers and the likelihood that Google will have missed at least half of the best ideas, the founders of the next Google are eating yellowtail tonight."

Some may be 'unfulfilled', but few are disgruntled (or any kind of gruntled), so they won't be on a mission to destroy Google.
In fact the most frustrated ones are likley the ones who wanted to be more aggressive with competitiors, and told not to bother ... they be leaving with half developed plans to undermine well-known Google competitors.
But let's not forget the many graduates of Google labs .. this 'petri dish' always offers a potential future for an insiders ideas; how many other phd-rich companies do that.
This guy's dreams of google destruction don't stand up once you compare how Google treats its PHDs compared with how virtually every other company treats theirs. Perhaps he doesn't realise that hundreds of other companies also have PHDs feeling unfullfilled - and NOT getting free sushi?
They are much more likely to spawn groups of random brains; and much more likely to share his Google-envy.
