Probably the best I've ever had since I left consulting and went back to full-time employee about 12 years ago. >>> >>>Hey everyone! Visa only has 11 employees! I mean how hard could it be? Transaction in, transaction out. Wax on, wax off. >> >>Yep, we are busy! > >Exactly. A company with relatively few employees can do a lot if they are the right people. There are so many mid-sized companies that should be a lot smaller but bloat themselves by emulating the megacorps with their levels of hierarchy, redundancies, and so on. (There is actually a term for that: organizational psychosis, which means companies behaving in a way inappropriate to their size).
