a couple? also look up seabury smith. Here is a list of their subsidiaries. http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/62709/000119312511047... You can't tell me zenefits justifies a 4 billion dollar valuation for what they are doing.

I think there are some big players who do daily if not weekly releases. I worked for one. It is all tenant shared and they push client specific changes on a regular basis.

I do not see it. I worked forMarsh & McLennan Companies, Inc. It has been around for years, has billions in revenue, and owns Mercer HR Services with customers like Toyota Motor Corp., Halliburton, American Airlines and many many others. They have a platform, SASS model, and nothing much different that what zenefits is doing. Even in the mid market they are extremely competitive. I do not see this is worth 4.5 billion dollars.

I can assure you that what you are experiencing is not out of the ordinary. Everyone has their struggles. My wife was pregnant with our third child while I was unemployed for 8 months. I encourage you to love that family and be a great husband and father. No business success can outshine what you have.

To quote Jamie Zawinski: "At the end of the day, ship the fucking thing! It’s great to rewrite your code and make it cleaner and by the third time it’ll actually be pretty. But that’s not the point—you’re not here to write code; you’re here to ship products."

"you'll never get your project done" This, it is about shipping product in the end. You will have a hard time selling an incomplete project. You are solving problems for customers.

It is usually my luck that I get approached by big vision sales types doing a project that requires some niche of what I do well. It is the distraction of the additional project that degrades the quality my work. Have to say no.

I use classic shell with win8. It gives me everything I was use to and I can boot to desktop mode. I think they will bring back some of what they took out in order to cater to businesses. They know businesses will not touch win8 as is and need to reincorporate what was removed during the refactor of win8. There is still support for god mode as well
