I think that our industry is too quick to believe that it’s “up and to the right” quickly or it’s time to move on to the next thing. And so do entrepreneurs who are quick to pivot to new businesses or to sell in an acquihire. Some entrepreneurs can make a dent in a smaller world.

They were referring to non-founder engineers, most commonly the first hire for technology businesses. From the perspective of my outside friends, why are employees that so clearly impact the growth trajectory of a company look like they’re getting screwed?

We eventually discovered (via five whys ) that we also had to get each new employee acculturated to a fearless way of thinking. For people we hired from larger companies especially, this was challenging. Because this was such a big cultural change for most new employees, we didnt leave them to sink or swim on their own.

But before that, actually, there was this a couple of years break where, when Udemy did not work in Turkey, I met this Silicon Valley entrepreneur who wanted to build online, like speed dating, a video-based speed dating application. But yes, I migrated from Turkey to Silicon Valley in 2010 and started Udemy. ER : That's really interesting.
