You should start looking for another job...
OP, stop reading after this post
That type of person with whom you are working will only ever make his situation better at your expense. You should begin looking for a better job and quit yours ASAP.
Bruh how is this shit legal lmao
Small shops are typically dominated by personalities. This can be good or bad. Based on the information you provided, this sounds like the latter. If you have no way of improving the culture and/or no reason to believe the culture will organically change and decide to leave-IMO, then you should do so as gracefully as possible. It's a small shop and you never know if your reputation there may come back to bite you. For example, no matter how tempting, do not bad mouth your employer to others during your search, do focus on the positives from the role (experience at an FO), etc.
Good luck. Sounds like an unfortunate situation and you'll learn from this when researching the culture of your next role.
Thank you, this was helpful feedback.
You're welcome! And good luck
how much do they pay
The founder seems hilarious
Why did you join this shit hole in the first place? What about this role is so attractive that it clouded your judgement? Part of investing is to be aware of what clears the market and assess the opportunity at hand against it. Funny but hard to believe that this is not a troll post.
I downplayed several red flags during the interview process. The position and culture were sold as something very different than what they turned out to be, which is why many high-caliber people have come and go from the team.
That’s terrible, sorry to hear man. I’ve done something similar re ignoring obvious red flags to chase a higher comp (suspect was the same for you as it’s really the only reason you’d ignore gut feeling). Ended up being a hard lesson that I didn’t need, leading to burnout. Get out of there as soon as possible before this lunatic start carving up your mental and physical health. Having that company on your resume can’t be additive to your long term career as I’m sure the reputation will get out to the street with the ongoing exodus. Market still looks pretty hot for talent so definitely don’t miss the window. Keep us posted!
