<description><![CDATA[Link  sharing community Reddit said goodbye to Senior Software Engineer Mike  a4ARaldia4 Schiraldi, who announced he was leaving the site after a a4Adream  offera4 from Google.a4AAt  this point in my career, I want to work at a place where the  programmers go all the way to the top, where the policies coming from HR  and IT and everyone else are designed with nerds in mind, not magazine  publishers,a4 Schiraldi said in his last post to the Reddit Blog.As  for what constitutes a dream offer from a company that ranks among the  best in keeping their employees happy, Schiraldi told me hea4a4s going to  err on the side of caution and stay silent until he finds out from Google what he can and cannot say about his new position.Obviously  hea4a4d be qualified to add Reddit-like features to Googlea4a4s own news  gathering services. Regardless, it will be interesting to see what he  can do under a management that supports and encourages his talents.Schiraldi,  who joined the staff in late 2008, is perhaps best known for his bold  appeal to Reddit users for help when the sitea4a4s massive growth began  outpacing available resources. Parent company Cond Nast made it clear  that Reddit needed to produce higher revenue to justify hiring more  employees and buying additional servers. Meanwhile, Reddita4a4s small team  of four employees poured all their efforts into keeping the site from crashing  instead of building new features that could make them more profitable.Not content with being punished for their success, Schiraldi wrote a brutally honest assessment of their predicament and debuted Reddit Gold Subscriptions as a possible solution. Users provided the funds necessary under the promise that exclusive features would be added for gold subscribers when they were feasible.Predictably, Cond Nasta4a4s feathers were ruffled and Schiraldi probably  took some heat, but overall the gutsy move paid off. The site has more than doubled its traffic since launching Reddit Gold &amp;8212' pushing over a billion page views in January alone.a4AThe  one silver lining to this is that Raldi&amp;'s departure really opened up  Cond&amp;'s eyes to what our needs are as a site that is different from all  the other properties at Cond Nast,a4 said Reddit Operations Manager  Jeremy Edberg in a comment thread.  He added that they had just wrapped up a meeting with Cond Nast  President Bob Sauerberg, who pledged additional resources, more funding  and the approval to hire a larger number of employees than originally  planned.For now it seems the Cond Nast management shake up under Sauerberga4a4s direction, which moved the Reddit employees higher up  in the management chain, is proving to be a very successful stride in  the right direction.Image via GaelachPrevious Story: A startup scribe goes nativePrintEmailTwitterFacebookGoogle BuzzLinkedIn      DiggStumbleUponRedditDeliciousGoogleMore&amp;8230'          Tags: link sharing, social newsCompanies: Conde Nast, Google, RedditPeople: Bob Sauerberg, Jeremy Edberg, Mike Schiraldi          Tags: link sharing, social newsCompanies: Conde Nast, Google, RedditPeople: Bob Sauerberg, Jeremy Edberg, Mike SchiraldiTom Cheredar is a contributing reporter at VentureBeat and freelance journalist.
