Good thing you’re not in charge of anything…

Easy to get COVID twice when you take no precautions.

You are the problem.

It’s easy to make a low-effort joke-comment like this, and obviously Fortune 500 CEOs and billionaires aren’t doing any good for the world, but this was a young woman who was pursuing her passion to try to make the world a better place.

The entire company is less than 50 people, and they seem to be trying to do good things.

I think we should try to be more context aware. “CEO BAD” is an easy philosophy to espouse, but it doesn’t really encompass the nuances of reality.

That was literally my first thought.

Maybe boomers are more embarrassed about being scammed (or just more private in general), and so basing all this on a self-reported study seems like a bit of a shaky foundation.

Would be great if they had some more data that wasn’t from self-reporting…

No! Mine!

I agree with @pizza_rolls, unless you can find out more about exactly what the startup-group is working on, I would base my decision on how much I’m enjoying my day-to-day work, how good my co-workers are, and how good the opportunities are for me to learn/grow my skills.

It isn’t usually a good sign when a new higher-up is bringing over large groups of people from a previous place, but it’s not always bad (or nefarious). It also depends on the scale of things. A close-knit 10 person team who has been working with each other for years can be an incredible asset when brought into a larger company that can provide them more resources. And giving them the space to continue doing their thing can lead to awesome results. This is usually the case when they are building something the compliments the offerings of the larger company, rather than trying to rewrite or replace some core offering of the larger company.

If you do find out for a fact that they are rewriting core backend services without working with the existing teams who know/understand these systems, then that is a huge red flag.
