“… it’s hard to develop new things in big organizations, and it’s even harder to do it by yourself. Bureaucratic hierarchies move slowly, and entrenched interests shy away from risk. In the most dysfunctional organizations, signaling that work is being done becomes a better strategy for career advancement than actually doing work (if that describes your company, you should quit now)”. Peter Thiel - Zero to One (emphasis added)
Thiel recommends quitting however not the best advice for most people. People have real bills to pay and the job market can be uncertain at times. Everyone isn't cut out for the startup space which is the focus of his book.
