Yeah, it's a filter we actually got from management at one company. They were looking for specifically agreeable type of developers. It was a consultancy and they needed to put 5 more developers on one of their big clients, and the client was getting sick of the previous people we had there; they were constantly fighting back against their idiots of managers.

Boss wants employees to write many hours, not have a weekly phone call from the client asking to replace another team member...

Agreeable people also stick around longer, because they think loyalty pays, and agreeable people rarely negotiate a good salary.
