> When posting job openings, you will always have to beat around the bush, without using direct language. And only then, when the candidate has already agreed to an interview or even after it, do you tell them what kind of content they will be working with every day.
> Employees join such projects for various reasons. Some realize that the pay is better than in legitimate projects. Others come because they couldn’t find a job where they wanted to, or because they are simply interested in working on something forbidden. And then a good company saving the world will come along and offer them a job, and they’ll leave. Building a stable team from people with this kind of motivation is hard.
I think OP made this whole article up. Everyone that applies for Aylo knows exactly what they're applying for. The pay is below-average because (a) there's not actually a lot of money in porn and (b) there's no shortage of dudes that want to work in it.

I’ve often noticed that startups post job listings with misleading job descriptions, especially in stigmatized industries. It’s only after the interview that they reveal what the work will actually entail. Perhaps you simply haven’t noticed such job listings.

- _fat_santa 6mo agoThis, Had a recruiter reach out to me the other day from a sports gambling website (one of the major ones, as reputable as you can get in this industry). I heard them out, thinking they would offer above market rate but in actuality, they offered significantly below market rate.
- comprev 6mo agoEmployment at a below market rate might be the only job some people can get due to events in their past i.e someone with a criminal record that puts most employers out of reach. There is a large talent pool who want to get their lives back on track.
- disillusioned 6mo agoYes, but they offered to put half of your paycheck on red to double your money!
- subscribed 6mo agoHere where I live gambling ("betting") companies offer salaries above market average, but it's been always a hard pass for me. I wouldn't care if my company was working in adult industry - I was working in a condom factory for a short while and the employees were some of the funniest, chillest people I worked with, with sex-related themes always somewhere in the context, but that was making everyone relaxed and genuinely nice. I'd expect porn tech company to be similar.
