nowickcounter··on Unicorn CEO: "IPO is not the goal" but maybe if you just worked a little harder
Fintech unicorn Kikoff's CEO sent this google doc to all employees this week saying that she doesn't want to IPO even though the business is doing well. Says that engineers need to "build more value" first. Not sure if her reasons make sense but would you work at a startup that actively didn't want to IPO?
