Comment on On a project headed for disaster. When to leave?

I wonder how many businesses fit this description behind the scenes. I can imagine some programmer working on the Sony Network thinking "wow, the security for this thing is crap, we are going to get hacked any day." I wonder how crazy a place like Paypal might have been in its early days. Those guys probably had no clue what they were doing and probably made a lot of mistakes which would make us cringe.

It seems like this company has actually done a lot of things right. They have customers, they are growing and they have trust. You are learning and getting good pay. Aren't we all just disasters waiting to happen? I would just stick with it. If the hits the fan, grab some popcorn.
