It says right there, 7-day work weeks (no days off).
Also they were part of the cohort forcing workers to stay minimum until 9PM.
Like every AI company, their "product" is a Next.js website, OPENAI_API_KEY, and a Stripe checkout page.
- porridgeraisin 7mo agoAh ok. What's with the "unpaid labour" part?
- buttsack 7mo agoIt's also in the original post. Greptile, HockeyStack, and others from that cohort of 20-year old founders out of YC were having software engineer candidates come in day-in and day-out, staying until 9PM under the threat of being rejected if they left earlier. They were not paid at all, they were working long-term on a "trial period". And yes it's very illegal. I was there and saw it first-hand. The guys they had on trial periods - though I'm sure they were very intelligent - were not really firing on all cylinders if you know what I mean.
