My fellow degenerates. My work BFF who I can lament and share pains with is being poached by our old boss (who jumped ship to one of our client's).
Should I dissuade him and convince him to stay? There is decent upside at the org we're currently at (exposure to logos, working directly with C-suite, decent comp plan).
The startup he's planning to join is heavily inbound and all he would have to do is manage the leads and close - they're PLG. The org we're currently at is semi-established and growing marginal YoY despite the economic conditions.
TLDR: Convince coworker to stay at "established" enterprise with marginal growth opportunity or take risk at high-lead inbound startup where the owner is planning to sell after they 5x
