It doesn't sound like this author has ever worked at a Fortune 500 company. He says you need to "experience it [startups] for yourself." Well the same can be said of large corporations, it's hard to know what anything is like until you've actually experienced it. I've worked for companies with less than a hundred employees and ones that had over a hundred thousand and yes there are people (including myself) who prefer a Fortune 500 company over a startup.
- kevinchau 13y agoMatthew, you're right. I've never been in an actual Fortune 500 company. But I've consulted for MS, and have worked at the Gates Foundation (which I frequently describe as Microsoft but with reverse cash flow). But I can confidently say, that I would not be happy nor would I fit inside that environment.
