What is the prize in your view? To grow as much as you possibly can and make as much money as you can?
Sounds like the "prize" for your boss is a stable company.
- zelon88 7y agoThat's fine. More power to him. I have to stay moving foward though. He may be happy with where he is and he should be. He earned it. But I'm steadily arriving at the conclusion that if there's never going to be enough of this company so that I've got paid off 4-wheelers and hotrods in my driveway too; then it just isn't a good fit for me.
- icedchai 7y agoYou work for a life style business not a growth company. If you want a startup, go find one.
- zelon88 7y agoFrom my interview... "...This company has been around for 50 years, but we're family owned and we're growing a lot right now. We're starting over in a new state so we're like a 50 year old startup! We've got that startup mentality..."
- icedchai 7y agoIn my experience, any company that claims they are a "X year old startup", where X >= 10, is full of bull.
