These patterns may also be very nasty for the one that ends up trying to convince you to stay. It's not unusual to have compensation for a team or a business unit based off signups. That's a ride on Easy Street when a company's surfing on a wave of marketing, word of mouth and general growth. When maturing, that ride becomes harder. Some orgs work cancellations into a negative part of compensation, while the bonus for the initial sign-up has already been paid out to the last incumbent in the role/team, or perhaps the now business head when they did your job. Negative compensation models. Companies that end up running such models are no longer learning organisations. I hope Udacity isn't one. If they are, just remember the person trying to persuade you to stay is not sitting in a particularly nice place
