halfway through, he stops me. "how much to acquire your company?"
i froze. i'm 24. my mouth just stopped working.
fumbled out "we need resources."
he didn't laugh. gave me his personal number. said check back in a few months.

A lot of people ask me why I chose startups so early instead of corporate.
So here's my honest answer.
First, you see the impact of your work directly. At a big company you're one link in a chain. Owning anything end to end is risky, so the work gets split. One person does their part, hands it off, and so on. At a startup you own the whole thing. Ideation, deciding what to ship, executing it, distributing it, talking to customers, gathering feedback, and reiterating it all over again.
And you actually see the result. It's a great feeling to think "that pilot customer we just landed, it was because I did X." At a big company, when there's a win, you can't fully credit it to yourself. You played a small part and you don't feel as connected to it.
Second, you get to collaborate with leadership. And I truly do mean collaborate. You're not handed tasks but can actually work to create the scope yourself.
I was at a startup once thinking they only wanted me doing one narrow thing. And when I talked to my coworker about it, they said to me: "Dara, what I'm doing right now isn't in my job description either. I just saw something, proposed it to the founders, and made it happen." That made me realize that I literally get to choose how much impact I make and what I work on. I can build my own projects.
Third, I didn't actually choose startups over corporate. I'm not closing that door. Startups are just the highest ROI for me right now. Because if you think about it, in corporate I most likely would have to wait until junior year for a meaningful role, and even then it would be an internship. Startups are able to give me more experience and bigger ownership now.
So maybe it's not startups vs corporate. It's just what the smartest move is right now.
