My favorite part was about how "millennials" will move into entrepreneurship instead of working for people who don't respect them. Hope so!

- modoc 18y agoI'm hoping that we see a big shift in the high-tech field away from big companies toward a network of small entrepreneur-driven companies that do one thing, and do it really well. Working with a network of people I trust, who are proactive and motivated to do a great job because they have skin in the game, is a real pleasure.
- fallentimes 18y agoI think it's already happening and will increase even more as very talented people continue to get laid off for reasons outside of their direct control.
- dla2000 18y agoExcept that there's going to be very limited start up money available...
- marvin 18y agoThis won't happen, it's like the sweet dream of small, self-sufficient communities. Not all kinds of work can be done in such an environment. But startup culture will inevitably do away with a lot of inane bureaucratic megacorp policies. Especially if all the trophy kids stop swallowing the bullshit. Most large organizations would be much more efficient with a different structure for incentives, and they'll start realizing it when they get hammered by others. Outraged news stories like this one is the first indication that something is happening. You aren't outraged unless you fear something.
- fallentimes 18y agoNot all kinds, but more than what currently is.
- dla2000 18y agoI would say that fear is the correct word, but suggest that you have the context wrong. It's not the top eschelon of the generation running away and creating their own businesses that we fear, it's the bottom tier thinking they merit top tier salaries with no proportional abilities to go along with them. I welcome the former, and the latter gives me nightmares.
