Completely anecdotal, but I was friends with two people in college who now work at Palantir, and a third who spent a summer there before working elsewhere. From the three of them, and conversations involving other people with Palantir experience that place is completely drinking from the well. They all completely bought into the company, it's mission, and everything that Peter Thiel had to say. It was kind of scary to see that level of blind allegiance to a company.
