Some industries (e.g. law) are close knit, at the top level everyone knows everyone, you’d get blacklisted for pulling stuff like this.
But tech isn’t like that, there’s always a new startup and a new VC firm that don’t care that you ripped off every single previous person you worked with, stole trade secrets… maybe this time will be different
- giancarlostoro 2mo agoDisgusting to think about honestly, no integrity.
- user43928 2mo agoIn the hiring process for tech, is it common to have a background check that unearths your mishandling of trade secrets? Or maybe word gets around locally or for special research positions.
- Tostino 2mo agoNot that I've done a ton of hiring, but no, that hasn't been common anywhere I've worked. The tech world is huge, it's easy to go somewhere else, outside of whatever bubble of people you've burned in the past, and start again.
