Hired at 11AM, Fired at 2 PM - My Startup Story - Need Refferal
8th August 2025 was one of the wildest days of my life.
At 11 AM, I was told I'd be hired as a full-time Frontend Developer after completing 3 months of internship. I felt relieved all the late nights, deadline, and work on responsive Uls finally seemed worth it.
By 2 PM, the founders called me in and said:
"You only worked on frontend. We now want a full-stack developer. You'll need to do 2 more months of internship to learn backend... and maybe we'll hire you after that."
I reminded them my role was clearly defined as frontend from day one. I asked, "What if after 2 months you still don't hire me?"
That was enough for the CEO to get angry and say:
"Exit him. We don't need him."
Name and shame the company.
Guys, If there are any Frontend Developer position, refer me pls 🙏

Sounds toxic
Yeah, During that meeting, ceo pointing everything on me, for everything : bcz of you. I was even worked on weekends. To meet the clients deadline. Even after doing this all, i was fired. I was an intern - i was worked like a full-time employee.
It's clear to me that you were being used
They paid me 10k per month, but they made nearly 80 Lakhs(in 35 days) from the work i made. The company sells, subscription based market research reports. I made whole website(it's still in production) and the Login Auth using Nextjs, auth.Js, middleware, MongoDB, like the synapse by mordor intelligence. Even after this i was fired
One suggestion that I can give, which helped me. Be active on LinkedIn ( comment, like, posts )
