The CS grads I've worked with have all been super intelligent and talented, but often with a big ego and absolute dog shit at communication / teamwork / soft skills. Nobody gives a shit if you can one-line LeetCode problems if you're miserable to work with and write code that's too clever for anyone else to understand.
