> The restrictiveness of big company jobs is particularly hard on programmers
It depends on how you define 'restriveness'. Sure in a large company it's difficult to make the types of decisions that will affect the whole organisation. On the other hand in a small company you are typically very restricted in terms of the numbers of users who you can make a positive difference on their lives.
Startups are typically experiments to see if there is any mass appeal. Large companies actually change the world.
Did anyone else find this as funny as i did?
Could you pick a more mainstream brand of shoe Paul?
