People there have joined a company that was founded just 3 years ago. The fastest company ever to reach unicorn status. This company is extreme by any metric you look at. No one there has had any "career" there. Even for the founder the time spent at bird is "short" when you look at it form a professional point of view. So expecting that kind of company to have a paternal view on their employees, like an industrial giant will have for their worker who spent 30 years working there, is just strange.
If you join a rocket ship, you should definitely expect turbulences during the journey. Account for that or join a more establish company, none of those fired 30% of their workforce overnight because of covid.
- lmilcin 7y agoThere are numerous stories of startups that do in fact care for their employees. This company is not a rocket ship. They have an app and drop a bunch of scooters on the sidewalk. Nowhere this type of business requires to have paper thin margins and disposable people unless you make it so as an owner/investor of the company.
