Alright, time to spill the beans on giga. Got hired back in April to lead demand gen for them. Quit after the first day. Red flags everywhere. >”when we hit $10m arr, we’re going to spend $100k on ____”(illegal stuff) >”we’re doing $____ in mrr” (Dashboards in the hq show 6x less) >bait n switch on title, start date, comp, etc. >had 2 international weddings I need them to pre-approve to take time off. They said yes. After I signed contract, they said “well you need to pick who you’re better friends with bc you can’t do both weddings now” >”I chopped off a goats head in India bc it brings good luck” >in office, 7 days/week, 12 hr days. “Pto policy is subject to change at our discretion… you are expected to always be working” >gave offer letter on Wednesday, said I need to sign by Thursday, and start job Monday morning. I had 3 days to move from atx -> sf. >first day of work, I got in early. Founder walks in my direction, I stand up, extend my hand for a handshake. He snubs me - not even an acknowledgement. I just moved my entire life & drove 26 hours across the country & not even a “welcome to the team” or a hello. Easiest decision of my life to quit after first day. I rarely root against founders, but this is the epitome of what’s wrong with tech/ai now. Offer letter for proof.
