Sorry to hear that =/

Work for good people with a history of moral dealing. A family member just had a life-changing payout because leadership was generous. A friend walked away from a company pre-pivot without equity for what became one of the decade's biggest acquisitions.

This stuff is lottery tickets, but real ones. You need to be smart about who you make your limited bets on.

And agreed, big cautionary note here shows that Windsurf having "founder-friendly" investors does NOT mean employee-friendly ones.
