▼ + stars: | 2024-11-20 | by ( Alyshia Hull | ) www.businessinsider.com time to read: +6 min

AdvertisementNolan Church is a former Google recruiter who says you could be holding yourself back from a promotion. There could be a misalignment in how an employee thinks they're doing and how management thinks they're doing, most likely due to a lack of feedback. These things surface when it comes time for a promotion, but they're hard to fix when you're unaware it's a problem. Ask your manager what you need to work on to move on to the next level. Budget constraints or business challengesIf a business isn't doing well, promotions are most likely not happening or are occurring at a significantly decreased rate.

☆ Grubhub just sold for $650 million. Four years ago it was worth $7.3 billion

Reuters —Europe’s biggest meal delivery firm, Just Eat Takeaway, said on Wednesday it had struck a deal to sell its U.S. unit Grubhub to Wonder for $650 million, sending its shares soaring 20% in early trading. “Just Eat Takeaway is at last putting an end to its disastrous U.S. journey,” Bryan Garnier analyst Clement Genelot said, noting the group had destroyed more than $7 billion in shareholder value there. Grubhub’s enterprise value of $650 million includes $500 million of senior notes and $150 million cash, Wonder said in a statement. Just Eat CEO Jitse Groen had in February said the M&A environment was not easy in the U.S., where fee caps cost the group some $100 million per year. JPMorgan said in a note it had argued for an about $1.2 billion valuation for Grubhub in the past, but the market would view the long-awaited deal as positive even at a lower valuation.

Founders of some of Europe's largest technology unicorns on Monday backed an open letter calling for a "tech renaissance" fueled by the creation of a single pan-European entity to promote startups and innovation in the bloc. But because of that, our startup scene is fragmented," read the open letter, which was published Monday on a newly created website for the EU Inc initiative. This results in "stifled momentum, unrealized potential, and an artificial limit on our startups' chances of success." So-called 28th regimes are proposed legal frameworks within the EU that offer an alternative to member states' own national rules instead of replacing them. The new structure of EU Inc would "standardize investment processes, simplify cross-border operations, and create a unified employee stock options framework" to help European startups scale rapidly and attract more capital, according to a Monday press release.
