The startup is Accel and Elevation backed.
The company raised seed funding because the founder and team is from IIT- Kharagpur, and Accel + Elevation have people from IIT-Kharagpur working in their team.
The founder has no prior work experience, no manners on how to speak with anyone (office boy, or women employees) keeps firing people who don’t agree with him, insists on being in the office for 12 hours because he pays us.
Hiring criteria is -
He boasts on how the VCs will save his ass even if the product fails, has said that worst case scenario I will make money because I know company will be acquired.
He hires domain experts, makes them create playbook and train juniors to do the work, and then fires them saying "We have to stay lean, and this is a bad market". He did this with 3 departments already.
How are the VCs not asking him basic due diligence questions? He is now raising 8 million follow up round.

If you can't name and shame the company on grapevine then what's the point?
Oh wait, is it TimelyAI?
Name and shame or gtfo
TimelyAI it is
This seems more like a personal grudge! Lol came across your recent post seems more misogynistic that this rant.
vvvvv Bosylady “Personal photos on LinkedIn Why do female founders and other budding LinkedIn female influencers post their personal pictures (gym photos, selfies, random photos of themselves) on LinkedIn? It's a professional platform for fucks sake. You don't post these photos on Leap Club but LinkedIn is okay because validation. And nobody calls them out. Men are lost in simp behaviour and others ignore them.”
Sorry, I couldn't understand why do you expect VC to babysit ?
