- buro9 15y agoI think you got confused... I currently work for Yell (multi-national, been around for ever). But, I have been working on a startup in my spare time for which I've now (as of last week) quit my day job to fully commit to. The startup has no money and will be the definition of frugal until we turn profit, Yell has less (they may make tons from sales and be profitable quarter to quarter, but they're saddled with amazing levels of debt).
