Svantaggi
- This company started small and it needs to grow up, mature and scale very fast - otherwise it will implode. - Has all the symptoms of small company - needs to scale it's organization, processes, communication, etc. - it shows. - There's not enough resources to attend to all of the customer needs - across-the-board prioritization is lacking, which is forcing folks to work extra-hard consistently, long hours, weekends - its very easy to get burned out. - competition from very large 800lb gorillas in the vendor space (Cisco, Ericsson)
