great question to kick off with!! I think both large companies and startups have aspects that are fantastic about them. The biggest adjustment was taking processes that I felt worked really well at a big company but adapting them with my team to work at a startup. At a startup, there aren't as many people/places spanning across multiple departments, levels, etc. that need to be updated or looped in and so I've wanted to take the core problem that was being solved but make it lighter weight, more flexible, etc. for a different size and kind of company.

Hey Allison! What has been the biggest adjustment for you moving from a large company to a startup?
