I can't speak specifically to your situation, but even cases like the one described, one person's success will often be at the expense of others (at least in a more general sense). For example, the company moves into a new direction, into a new market they have never been in before. Presumably, there are other competitors in that market and your success may have a negative impact on their success. Even if it is an entirely new market, presumably the product is competing with products in another market, your expansion may then have a negative impact on those individuals.
