    I love the idea of company loyalty but your last sentence is spot on. I became a contractor because I can choose to work on projects I’m passionate about and take care of myself instead of relying on some bs corporate lip service. I’d give it up in a heartbeat to work at the non existent company that actually cared about and invested in its people long term rather than just spewing bullshit at best. Even then, if that company did exist it would eventually just get bought out or taken over if it ever got marginally successful and it would all get stripped away anyhow.
