bizarre tech decisions have led to insane costs with 0 customers. launch is about 2 years behind. having a lot of trouble hiring senior engineers, when they do they don't listen to them. they have a strange platform that every product team must use. tech leadership has never launched a successful startup before. they have over 300 employees, maybe 400 now. 4 levels of management already, and a _lot_ of them. it's independently funded for now, and has the potential to keep on going like this as long as Dave D. doesn't pull the plug.

I guess its not _that_ different than that one time I had 4 VPs of Engineering, for 30 engineers </s> Sounds like an absolute bonkers-fest, thank you for sharing.
