From the limited perspective I have, I guess you are looking for a “scale up”, that is, an established startup with steady funding that is profitable, but either too small or not-quite-there for an IPA or an acquisition to happen yet, with about 100 employees. I have worked for such a company and know others with a similar business, and it’s the best from both worlds in my opinion; you get the structure, financial freedom and delegation of a bigger company, and the flat hierarchy and freedom to do whatever the fuck you want from startups.
Can recommend!
- theshadowknows 5y agoThat sounds amazing. Honestly I like product "stuff." I'm a product guy..I want to work on building things, making them work well, adding value to our customers. And when I started here it felt like we were doing just that. We augmented the customer experience with useful tech, we built out a great platform that (so far) has been scaleable and expanded the capabilities of tons of other teams. But the past several months things have changed from a partnership to "do this because we say so and we have bigger budget than you so we'll just buy contractors to do it if you don't." And I can't thrive in that kind of an environment.
