I've stopped being self-employed, or working for small firms, and joined a massive, international conglomerate (but not named Oracle, I'll only share that). The state of American healthcare has a bit to do with it, but I won't go into that here. I'm still living the Compliance focused non-dream, which is to say if you asked me when I first started supporting GNU/Linux on corporate networks in 1993 what I'd be doing 25 years later in 2018+, "arguing with security authorities" wouldn't have been on that list, and I would have told my old self not to go down that SME skillset.
