What I wish I knew was that if you’re an early company employee, it’s not
likely that the skills you have on day one are the skills needed as the
company scales to the next level. This sentence is worth reading multiple
times as no one – not the person who hired you, the VC’s or your peers -is
going to tell you when you’re hired that the company will likely outgrow you.
In any case, take heart though. If we did it once, we can do it again.
