The author mentioned they’ve been self-employed for 15 years, then proceeds to make a bunch of claims about traditional employment, like being “your professional development being structurally supported,” but it’s important to remember the variance in normal employment, too.

When you’re valuable in a certain position at a company, trying to grow beyond it is like swimming upstream in a raging current. The pigeonholing that happens when you work for a big company is not to be underestimated.
