Synopsis

High-stakes compensation and the promise of entrepreneurial excitement are just two reasons technology start-ups are an enormously attractive option for employees on the move. Sizing Up a Start-Up is exactly the book new economy careerists have been waiting for.

It draws valuable insight from the author, a seasoned expert with years of experience in the technology sector. Answering essential questions about new economy business and compensation that provide an insider's insight, Sizing Up a Start-Up is essential information for high tech enthusiasts and for entrepreneurs and investors appraising start-up opportunities.
