Diego Basch is leaving LinkedIn

• dude_abides 14y ago
  tldr version (quoting the OP): I am exhausted from seven years of almost nonstop work, and I need a break.

    I hope he got paid well for it--that kind of thing can leave you wiped out for a long time.

      In my experience, it takes ~ 6 months to unburn, AT LEAST.
      • amcintyre 14y ago
        Same here--I think it was a good 9 months before I actually felt like I could do anything other than just get through an 8-hour day and go to bed.

    He sold his company, IndexTank (http://engineering.linkedin.com/open-source/indextank-now-open-source http://engineering.linkedin.com/open-source/indextank-now-op...) to LinkedIn a few months ago.

      And lost 7 of the best years of his youth.

  His LinkedIN profile page now displays: "CEO of Nothing at all". LOL

  I wonder why he leaves 12 months after the IPO? Maybe there was a contractual reason? http://blogs.marketwatch.com/thetell/2012/05/18/happy-birthday-linkedin/ http://blogs.marketwatch.com/thetell/2012/05/18/happy-birthd...
