We're on a path to failure. Our product is mostly simple. The need is there. The market is excited and interested. If we don't fail though, I will be shocked. We have a non technical founder who fashions himself the VP of Engineering and is, in fact, a micro managing narcissist. He has no engineering experience at all. In facytt, I don't think he has any management experience either. He doesn't understand the work we're doing, holds people hostage until they explain it in a way he thinks makes sense and makes engineering decisions by fiat, using his personal anecdotes as evidence. He is the worst kind of leader and no one at the executive level is willing to actually do anything about it. He doesn't trust anyone, except those willing to humor his nonsense and even they don't trust him. Before you ask, I stay because the team is great and if we don't fail, the upside is early retirement in grand fashion level returns.
