Remember that they may have turned down another offer to take yours -- and then the other position may have been filled too. I've seen this kind of thing happen once, though I wasn't directly involved and don't recall the details. Okay, maybe three months is more than necessary, but I don't think I'd make it less than six weeks.
- brianwawok 9y agohave you ever run a startup with a limited bank account? If so, did you pay 6 weeks of runway for a brand new hire that didn't work out? This is not to say that if you have not been in the shoes you have no valid thought.. but as someone in those shoes right now I cannot imagine operating that way. Happy to be up front when I hire someone, if this isn't working then it is best we part ways quickly... Obvious US vs Euro expectations are very different in regards to job security.
