the flip side of working for a big company is the risk averse nature of job for most employees, Adam Herscher an ex-Microsoft employee blogged on his reasons for leaving that life to tryout something different, I find his reasons interesting and agree with the timing as there couldn't have been a better time, the economy is doing good, job market is fine and as he puts it he is still young and dependent free, its better to start out sooner then later.
The things that he lists as reasons for him to leave the job:
1. lack of work hard-play hard culture
2. not much room for individuals to take big risks and reap big rewards
his solutions:
provide a risk/reward system in which one's work can have a direct impact on their stake in equity.
he makes a lot of sense, you should read
his blog too.
