Are they worth working at or should they be avoided?
What is it like working at a start up?
Imagine working at McDonalds for $2 an hour.

I show up to work everyday at 8:00 AM and usually don't leave until 7:00 PM. Everyday at noon when the CEO finally strolls in after a night spending our seed money on hookers and blow I'm assured the company will take off after the next round of funding and they will finally be able to stop paying me in their worthless cryptocurrency that no one's even heard of.
Guaranteed this guy drinks soi by the gallon
Why do most of them seem to obsess about bugmen stuff and having bean bags and ping pong tables in the work place.
>What is it like working at a start up?
massively lower pay, more work, more hours, less job security, no room for career growth
They need actual employees to scrape money off retarded venture capitalists, and real engineers won't fucking touch it since they have no actual plan. So they use that shit to draw in literal sõyboys who are so malnourished and pumped up on "science and computers fuck yeah!" they don't even realize that their job is bullshit and they themselves are completely incompetent.
