comment Potential offer as first employee at startup, worth it?
+1. though 1 in 10 is very ambitious. 1 in 10 for "worth anything", but let's say 1 in 1000 to be worth his while given the numbers.

comment Expanding development team for a startup
@acjohnson55 cut scope like crazy so you can get it into the market faster. Your end goal should be market feedback and penetration. Everything else is noise. If you can't attract a developer knowing what they (we?) like, then it sounds like you already know the answer.

comment An idea to implement R&D in a software services startup
FYI: some countries (ex: Canada) provide huge refunds of up to 70% for corporations on R&D costs, and 30% (or near it) for contractors. Huge. This alone makes it worth it. Not sure about the US, though.

comment Why are some companies admired?
While Starbucks may have good internal culture, I would say it's nearly the opposite from the outside looking in. At least in my opinion / view.

How would you measure performance? What does your start-up do? Developing software to sell? Selling services?
