Boredom was the biggest thing for me at my startup. When waiting around for the business guys to make the right partnership for 3 months while you refactor for a demo for the nth time....
- ramraj07 7y agoThat doesn't sound like a typical startup experience though. Typically it's the opposite: too many things to do and the deadlines are always too short.
- phinnaeus 7y agoThis also sounds suspiciously similar to big tech...
- _AzMoo 7y agoThis sounds suspiciously like all business everywhere.

- taurath 7y agoYup, and I WANTED the typical startup experience when I joined, so I left once I could see there wasn't much traction, plus a few more red flags.
- throwaway9980 7y agoI’ve lived this a couple times. I hate to be pessimistic, but it’s a really bad sign. The startups I’ve done that were successful were always running just at the edge of total meltdown because the business guys were hustling hard.
- lmeyerov 7y agoHeh, that's the diff between early stage and growth stage. Some people like going 0-1, others like riding what others have built.
- brianwawok 7y agoFound as a solo! You are the business guy making partnerships, so if you have nothing to code it is no ones fault but your own!
