- The hiring is quick, but CEO is not open about the real situation in the company until you signed the contract and got in.
- If something was agreed before accepting an offer but didn't get to the contract, it will be hard to get it.
- Unclear statements in contracts are treated in a company-friendly way (as opposed to the employee-friendly way you usually find in other startups). Take a lawyer to check the contract.
- You need to make sure all important takeaways from your communication with the company management is duly documented.
After I've notified the company that I'm leaving, all due payments (last two months) were frozen. CEO proposed me to sign a termination agreement where I either give up a part of my due payments, or agree to receive half of the payments in a year, and agree not to sue the company. That's just hilarious. BEWARE!
