Palantir CEO Alex Karp has boasted that his employees are the "golden ticket" of tech companies.

Business Insider spoke to half a dozen tech recruiting professionals to find out if Palatir is as powerful as he has made it sound.

The company recently hit an all-time high in its stock and brought in $2.87 billion in revenue in 2024 , surpassing McDonald's and Disney .

While culture may vary across tech companies, Sharghi says the guiding philosophy when it comes to hiring is largely the same across the board.
