Pros

It is fully remote, and I believe there was one admin who seemed to have a role of repeatable, well understood tasks, and was able to remain under the radar to collect a paycheck.

Cons

Not a real venture capital firm. Rather the passion project of a narcissistic, mercurial CEO who has set up shop in a variety of tax haven islands, and paid attorneys to ensure he is sufficiently shielded him from the presumably nefarious things his various holding companies are up to. There is one profitable company within the portfolio that leaders will claim is going to transact in the next few years; however, with 75%+ turnover, and a narcissistic, unfocused, and unpredictable leader, it is unlikely to happen. Offers will include competitive base salaries and pie in the sky bonus and equity numbers that are unlikely to ever be realized. The CEO has surrounded himself by a group of sycophants who spend hours upon hours listening to the CEO wax poetic about a myriad of topics that do not tend to push the business forward. These “leaders” change direction to ensure alignment with the CEO’s ever changing moods. The rotating cast of characters has yielded a lack of operational capability and disgruntled employees who are usually looking for a new job.

Pros

- absolutely none other than being trauma bonded with the people I worked with who also have left the company.

Cons

- the CEO is telling people to write 5 star reviews because he almost lost a brand sponsorship (if you do not believe me, please check back to review that aren't recent / five stars and you will find the truth) - the most toxic place and CEO I've ever worked for. he was and i'm sure still is emotionally abusive (would get called vulgar names on the regular). - CEO has absolutely no personal or professional boundaries - CEO would be upset if you had a doctor's appointment - CEO would be upset if you had a family or children's event - CEO would threaten to fire you every day over absolutely nothing. it was emotional warfare. - CEO manipulates you to stay by offering you more money or bonuses - it's a revolving door. if anyone is there longer than a year it's a shocker.
