Something happens to companies when they get to be a few billion dollars. They sort of turn into vanilla companies. They add a lot of layers of management. They get really into process rather than result, rather than products. Their soul goes away. And that's the biggest thing that John Sculley and myself will get measured on five years from now, six years... Were we able to grow a ten billion dollar company that didn't lose its soul?

-- Steve Jobs, November 1983
