I mean it's not as though that's not a problem in normal companies. It's just that normal companies can sort of use the guise of structure or professionalism to harangue whatever employees the clique ends up disliking. The cliques are baked in, in a normal company.

Exactly, in a normal structure the bullied employee would just be told they don't fit the culture.

It can be a problem at other companies, but even worse than average at Valve by virtue of corporate structure. Both of these things can be true.
