Two of the more successful Internet start-ups, Facebook Inc. and Zappos Inc., have very different methods of retaining employees, each with different goals. At Zappos, we have 10 core values that act as a formalized definition of our company culture. Our core values weren't formed by a few people from senior management that sat around in a room at a company offsite. For fast-growing technology start-ups, there are many approaches to employee hiring and retention.
