Hire me and pay what you want, just give me interesting work
I’ve been on the receiving end of similar requests before.<p>“I’ll work for free or nothing if you let me do what I love under the umbrella of your organization because I love it so much.”<p>I did one or two agreements like this and then stopped altogether. The individual would start their work, others would start to depend on its existence and the individual would leave in a matter or weeks or months because something else better came along for them. There was no incentive to keep the relationship going over a longer term. My organization just wasn’t setup to see any upside to short lived but high quality team members.<p>Is there anyone out there who does work agreements like this currently and benefits from them? Would love to hear more details. Perhaps that feedback could help Franceso with his pitch.<p>Franceso please come back in a week and let us know what kinds of offers you received. Will be very interested to see where this goes.
