Avoid - CEO is a scumbag

Pros

Cool coworkers, company is growing rapidly (that’s good and bad)

Cons

The company seems great, until you realize there is a very long and rapidly growing list of people who have been screwed over by the CEO. He routinely lies, breaks promises, and engages in unethical business practices. Megalomaniac who gets enjoyment out of bragging about how little he pays his workers. The company is growing fast but it is a house of cards. If you want to work for an Elon/Trump worshipping pathological liar who doesn’t care about artists or employees, this is a great place for you. If you value yourself or have morals, stay far away.
