the company that brought me to sf last year and didn't hire me has yet to turn a profit
the only money they received was a 12 million dollar investment 2 years ago
they had 51 employees when i was out there and rapidly expanding, meaning they would be paying their employees a max of ~$100000 each which is jack shit considering their location. they were also rapidly expanding into bigger and bigger office complexes which would cut their employees' wages even more
their sdk's reception was lukewarm and they have yet to make any good games
they'll likely cease to exist within this year because nobody's going to give them any money
it's funny because the ceo said i clearly didn't know what i was doing when really he didn't know a goddamn thing about the industry and got into games just to make a quick buck lol
also they fired their lead engineer days after my interview. he was the guy who found me and invited me out. if i'd interviewed with him i probably would've got the job. also it's not a good idea to fire your best developer when you're trying to get your product set up lol
In this moment, I am euphoric. Not because of any phony god’s blessing. But because, this shitty company failed.
this kid i know got $14,000 on kickstarter to photograph each and every one of his near 800 friends on facebook
i am one of those 800 or so and i have no desire to actually be a part of this project
it made national news too ugh

kick his ass and get on the news too
that is why i try to lol at companies scamming their way into big money seed investments [[rather than envy them]] and focus on my own thing because 95percent of them are exactly the same as that wrench; sounds like some terrible leadership
