I wouldn&amp;#x27;t go to Oracle, IBM, Google, Facebook, MS, etc. etc. if I had a &amp;quot;huge fire or a drive to win&amp;quot;. Honestly, I go there because I wanna work 5 hours a day (less if possible) and have a stable career.&lt;p&gt;If I want to work 9-12h a day, give me an upside. None of these huge megacorps will reward that.&lt;p&gt;If I&amp;#x27;m the lead of a Goog project that becomes a hit, do I get $10M bonus? Of course not. I get a pat on the back and something to put in my packet for the next promotion interview.&lt;p&gt;So you&amp;#x27;re absolutely right, but the problem is not in people.
