Comment on Ask HN: startup or small team within big company

Comments

"members of small teams at big companies working on new projects"

can get worst of both the worlds. it depends.

Like the other commenter mentioned, at startups there isn't much you can do if things go bad but quitting. Also, there's not necessarily financial security as a big company.

What would be the worst of both worlds in your opinion?

i meant those teams will have to face bureaucracy, politics, collaboration with slower teams, overkill processes, futile meetings of a big corp. while working fast on tight deadlines like a startup at the same time.

also, startups fosters innovation, can provide rapid growth, you get to learn outside tech about business, marketing stuff, but not in a big corp
