just asking

Guy Kawasaki wants links and questions. I'm happy to oblige.

My question is multiple choice. Is it better to

a) found a startup, OR
b) join a startup that's got enough runs on the board to be clearly viable, OR
c) go to a big established company, but in a new division that's in startup mode

I know the answer is "different strokes for different folks", I'm still interested to hear what the pros & cons are for different people.

Just for the record, I chose option C - as of monday, I'll be working for Woolworths Financial Services.

That means Coles Myer will be my competition (how good's that? 2 links for the price of one!)

I guess that depends - do you want to put yourself on the 40 year retirement plan, or the 4 year retirement plan?

How about choosing both (c) AND (a)?

By the way, is (c) hiring ? :-)
