I'd agree. My first job out of college was for a retail technology start up and within 18 months we turning over 60M Euro (though margin for us was <3%). I started as the first tech person in the company and I was working pretty much every waking moment and within that 18 month period I was managing a couple of developers, a couple of sys. admin and an analyst. After four years I left, without having established a solid dev. background and still too inexperienced to get another senior position.
