interviewer: the max for this position is $80K
interviewer: hello?
- lucisferre 11y agoI see this a lot with startups hiring on Angel List. Angel List makes them specify a salary range so they do, but always offer well below the minimum. At best they are blatantly insulting the candidate, at worst they are liars. Probably both.
- meesterdude 11y agowow, they've all been from angel list for me too! i didn't realize the connection till now.
- amitm 11y agoSorry to hear about your experience. We take abuse like this seriously. If possible, could you email me the names of the companies at amit@angel.co?
- lucisferre 11y agoI think it's awesome that you take this so seriously. I also think it's great that you ask companies to be upfront about compensation (I say this as an founder). It irks me when companies aren't forthright with potential hires.
- sterl 11y agoDefinitely replying to this, I've had this happen more than once at the offer stage.

- gmmeyer 11y agoI've also gotten on Angel's List: Me: "So, the salary range for this position starts at 130K?" Founder: "Yes, that's the salary you'll recieve..." Me: "..." Founder: "once I get funding." click
