Around 7-8 months ago I was interviewing with many startups and no one asked me for a NDA. The only exception was a company that asked me to sign a NDA just for an informal chat. Normally I don't mind a simple NDA, but this company NDA

My impression is that they are still around, but they failed to deliver the "recruiting revolution" and I think the reasons are: - The screening had a lot of false negatives. "I got rejected by Triplebyte, but got a FAANG off

Love shlinkedin and I think you have a shoot of making it successful. Not "the next Google" kind of successful, but could be at least a life style business.

The truth is that it become a race to the bottom with a lot of open source projects, specially the ones that are not hard to replicate. If the author made the project GPL, someone else would create a similar library with a more permissive l

In tech the usual way it works is “every year you stay, I give you 25% of the bonus” and because the bonus is in stock, it can actually increase over time. That is why I feel this bonus is not a good idea, $50k/year is not enough comp

I think this may backfire. It will give the people who received the bonus more leverage to negotiate better comp somewhere else, and will rub the people who didn’t receive it the wrong way, which might be the push some need to start intervi

I'm sure Jack Dorsey selling an NTF of the first tweet ever had nothing to do with this plan.

I don’t think the problem is that the game is a niche game, there are ways to break even with niche games and just copying what everyone else is doing is not exactly a receipt for success. In my opinion these is what OP could have done diff
