I am particularly impressed with this interview. The level of self-awareness of cassie of her earlier self really helps the reader understand what it was like truly as a first employee of Kickstarter. I also really love how she managed explaining that although the founders are awesome, they were not perfect in a very balanced way. A lot of interviews I have read like this always tries to make the founders seem like people who have all the answers, but how she explains it, makes it feel like they were just any other company with a vision trying to figure shit out. Which is inspiring/encouraging.
Question:
I get the feeling, Kickstarter feels like a different life for you now. Out of curiosity did your equity at Kickstarter completely vest before you left?
- cassiemarketos 10y agoThank you so much for the kind words! That's a very generous response and I appreciate you sharing. Kickstarter does feel like a completely different life, but that's only because of how much I was able to grow while I was there. That's a good thing, I think! My equity did not completely vest, no. Close, but no!
