Since Sam has taken over at the helm, the expansion of YC including adding partners and employees has been dramatic. The YC website got an overhaul, added (the macro), created YC fellowship and Y Research. It seems like Sam's vision for YC is much larger than PG's was.
While under PG, YC kept things small, specific, and focused. Don't get me wrong, I think Sam is doing an absolutely fantastic job. However there is a stark contrast in scale, speed, and vision.
- cperciva 11y agoI agree that there has been a big difference, but I think you may have cause and effect backwards. I was under the impression that PG handed over the reins largely because YC was growing and he wasn't interested in running a large organization.
- mathattack 11y agoYes - Sam was hired to scale it.
