depends. it (used to be) a tough job to get. i've heard vague indications that their profit sharing would have been extremely lucrative. but i dont know exact numbers.
but just on a numbers basis if you made 1m a year profit sharing but a normal job outside you'd make 200k, you'd have to really hate working there to quit purely for the 6month payout.
- void_mint 6y agoEh. This thread is about employees of 3+ years, in which case, even if the profit share is very lucrative, they've received that profit share 3+ times. On top of that, I doubt Basecamp pays poorly. If you're even vaguely burnt out or bored, 6 months off sounds like a dream.

- jrochkind1 6y agoI believe the profit-sharing plan is new, announced as part of these "changes". > In addition, we recently introduced a 10% profit sharing plan If so, it's hard to say for sure how lucrative it would be either, especially if you aren't privy to the details of what they say they are offering. But if so, nobody's gotten it already, you'd have to stay to get it. https://world.hey.com/jason/changes-at-basecamp-7f32afc5 https://world.hey.com/jason/changes-at-basecamp-7f32afc5
