More and more I’m sick of VC backed startups as well, because I see how VC money is a deal with the devil that incentivizes people to focus on scale, valuations and exits rather than quality and intrinsic reward from creating a good product. This has rapidly accelerated as I watch VC unabashedly fall in line with this new presidential administration.
Not sure where to turn next though. I could walk away from tech and join a niche legacy industry, but there some much interesting stuff that I’d be closed off to as a result.
As much as I’m looking for an answer, curious if anyone else finds themselves asking the same questions.
