Big business often equals bad business
Big companies shouldn’t be allowed to own anything. Too much corruption and they’re often too big for anyone to really know what’s going on. That’s what leads to bankruptcy and the layoffs.
The recent AMS stupidity has hit home once again; erasing one of the handful of affordable “bookish” national magazines. I saw this when I went online to try and renew my subscription.
The money is not always the best. But I know a lot of people who work for small companies and small presses and they always seem happier and have a more stable job. I think there’s a lesson to be learned there.
