>worked in startup for over a year
>long story short, it's completely web-based, communicated through Telegram, no office or anything
>for the past year I was very optimistic on this, looking forward to the success the startup would achieve
>after a year, reality sets in(very late)
>notices that alot of people that once worked with us have not shown up in the chat for months
>alot of the so-called announcements the CEO has been talking about for the past year ends up nowhere(supposed partnerships where we didn't even end up using their software)
>we actually got the first real potential capital raise, which included a "mission" to develop a very simple software for the company in question
>CEO takes us devs on the call, and talks about something completely different. When I question him about the mission we were given by the other company, he says don't think about it.
>now been working on yet another project that seems to be of no real use to the startup
>we were 4 a month ago on this project
>now we're just 2 which includes me, the 2 others have been radio silent for the past week
>no idea how many there really are left in the startup aside from me, the CEO and 5 others, getting less and less even if the CEO makes it sound like we're 20 at least
>these past months I've actually realized how absolutely unprofessional this entire startup is run
>considering the lack of resources the startup seems to have, I'll give it 2 months before it collapses on itself
