Employees at Spotify rarely work the same job for more than 2 years — and the CEO says that's on purpose

- Spotify jobs aren't static, according to CEO Daniel Ek.
- He told Fast Company that he views jobs as "tours of duty," just like LinkedIn founder Reid Hoffman.
- At Spotify, while your title might stay the same, the actual work you're doing will almost certainly change over time.
In a recent interview with Fast Company, Spotify CEO Daniel Ek said he thought of jobs as "missions," rather than static roles.
"You have a number of years when you perform a job, and then your tour is over, and it's time for you to think about what the next step is," Ek told Fast Company. "I describe them as missions. You may have the same title, but you don't have the same job more than two years, and the more honest we are about that, the better it is."See the rest of the story at Business Insider
