In this conversation, Jonathan Barker shares his career journey working for various companies of different sizes, from a 90,000-person corporation to a small family-owned business.

He discuss his experiences working for a company that went public and the challenges of being a publicly traded company. His transition from being a young man to a young father and how it impacted his career goals.

We also talked about the struggles of working for a small business that lost its small business status, leading to layoffs. And the frustrations working for a family-owned business with unclear job responsibilities and a lack of adherence to regulations.
