Twitter Wants To Hire 88 Engineers, IPO Signs Grow 32
Dawn Kawamoto writes "You should never do anything just for the money, but Twitter has 88 engineering jobs up for grabs and the company is apparently showing signs it may be moving closer to launching an IPO. If you find a Twitter job that works for you, better to get hired now when the cost to exercise your stock options will likely be far less than what you'll pay if hired after the company is public."

If a company is popular and thinking of floating you're too late to get rich signing up. Chances are if you get shares they'll already have been diluted and you'll only get them if you stay there for a set number of years AND they don't get further diluted. If you're in the first 50 or so employees in a company that becomes a large multinational AND you play your cards right you MIGHT make some real money.
