Friend of mine interviewed here. company hires you on a contract basis (for 4 months or so) with the possibility to transition to permanent FT after. Comp is very low.
So it is basically an internship or is the full time transition guaranteed?
Probably more of a contract role than an internship. Don't know what the conversion rate it between the contact to FT. I'd read the Glassdoor reviews - they're not great
Don’t waste your time. I was contacted by them a while ago and it’s pretty much a sham
Interesting. Can you elaborate a little bit - what about it is a scam?
Looking at the portfolio, it looks like they made investments in many big names.
