The bit she has in here about knowing which companies will succeed based on who's there on the weekends is such a crock of shit. It's like she's saying all the ones that failed it's because the people involved didn't work hard enough. That is so condescending and insulting.
Start ups fail for all kinds of reasons, sure sometimes it's because people didn't work hard enough. But not remotely always. Sometimes an idea just doesn't pan out. Sometimes people get screwed by a bad choice, sometimes that bad choice was made because they were working so hard they weren't thinking straight.
Any kind of statement like saying that you can tell which start ups will succeed or fail based on a single criteria is just hubris and obviously wrong.
- mrits 10y agoI agree. The difference between 40-80 a week isn't that much when you can consider some places you can get by doing just a few hours of work. If you create an atmosphere where people are excited to work then you are perhaps 20x more productive than some other companies.
