"Seed"
would be better categories. You could use Crunchbase or something similar to categorize by what round they are in.
That still excludes bootstrapped companies but are much more sane categories in my opinion.
- krazykonkani 7y agoThere are definitely more categories than what we have and agree the naming can be improved. Next ones we are considering adding are: 'Mid Stage backed by Big Name Investors' and 'University + Govt.' jobs.
- ilikepi 7y agoSeems like two different filters are needed: one for size and one for stage. Excluding established/bootstrapped companies is silly unless the purpose of the site is to only list jobs at startups.
- krazykonkani 7y agoWe don't plan on excluding any established companies, the filters will be expanded and you will see more categories soon.
- cephaslr 7y ago"Famous" "Late" "Mid" "Early" "Seed" are probably more sanitized and accurate but I would argue less fun. It will drive the employers crazy to not be included in 'Top brands' but as a user I know exactly what 'FANG + Top brands' means and I love it. Its refreshing to see a job board that's a little edgy and innovative.
- krazykonkani 7y agoExactly! Our goal is to cater to the user's\developer's perspective.
