The company was a great place to work. He got a lot of exposure to the IT world and worked with great people, and the company culture was the best.About a year down, it started hitting Jofin that the team was probably doing more in terms of having fun building stuff in college than in employment. Though they were now making money, they didn't enjoy what they were doing. It took them two years to quit their jobs and return to their startup. For Jofin, those two years he spent in employment instead of working on his startup are his worst investment ever.Lessons learnedNo time is too late. Today's the best time to start.
