Can’t think of any due to executive level leadership. It was once a great company that was culture and people driven. That has been gutted with 2 major layoffs in the last 4 years.

I see bunch of top tier folks have advisor position in a few start ups on their LinkedIn profiles. What does the advisor actually do? How much involvement does it require? How one would get such position? YOE 12 / TC 700k
Is there a precedent for start ups lowering salaries instead of doing layoffs? About to join Series C and just wondering what risk profile looks like
Hi folks, I'm trying to apply for a position which suits my profile in UPS. Looking for a referral :) please help
