Comment on Ask HN: How did you become one of the first 50 at a major tech company?

Luck. Luck. And oh yeah also Luck.

I'm the first employee at a well funded, fast growing company. I was an entrepreneur myself so I saw a lot of startups. The most successful of the lot is one whose early days were so pathetic. Their initial idea was uninspiring. Their CEO was always tired and deflated. He took a bad investment and was pretty bummed by that.

No one can tell...
