The fact that the article states the cost of $1000 at the outset is a bit disturbing given that it goes on to describe the intense amount of time and effort taken in the search for hiring.
It indicates to me that the person writing this article doesn't consider their time to be valuable, and raises all sorts of red flags about how they would value the time and energy of their employees.
Throw in the combination of the shared jean jackets and incredibly forced (almost desperate) smiles in the Hero/Footer image and the cult vibe is overwhelming screaming RUN AWAY.
Is this a coded cry for help? Should we rescue these developers?
- glloydell 7y agoI'm going to double down on this one. I poked around their site and read the blog post on their flyer campaign : https://www.kapwing.com/blog/postering-san-francisco/ https://www.kapwing.com/blog/postering-san-francisco/ And it ends with this quote : "By the end of our 8-hour workday, we had: - Put up 352 posters - Spent $96.16 ($31.08 for tape + $65.08 for printing) - Taken 25,497 steps - Walked 11.2 miles - Used over 400 ft of tape" Nowhere in there does it say anything about the cost of paying the people to do that work. They're very clearly and plainly stating that they do not put any value on the time of their employees.
