I suspect there's just a wee bit of hypocracy taking place here.
One has to wonder if this truly was the case, and he came to these conclusions in a reasonable timeframe (on the order of 1 year), why on earth he's bothered to stay with HP for 2 full years?
Very likely this was due to an "earn out" clause in the acquisition agreement of Tabblo (his start-up).
So, in other words, the author has stayed-on for...the paycheck.
- azanar 17y agoThere might be hypocrisy, but I suspect that is not the case. It is possible that the A player 20% he encounters is enough to make him feel like the value he gets out of working at HP is greater than the value he might get going somewhere else. Not all the value one derives from an employer is in the form of currency.
