Grapevine Culture- Grapevine

I saw the founders' posts about hiring for Grapevine. Did you guys raise funds? If not, how is this being funded? How do you plan to monetize? What's next for Grapevine?

How is Grapevine doing?

Random thoughts: is there a Grapevine for Grapevine employees?

Grapevine for Grapevine 🍇 Employees?

Welcome to Product Managers's Private Community

Hey Folks, I thought I should do an AMA specially after yesterday’s rumours that I have been laid off from Grapevine - this isn’t true 😂. It is however true that I have been PIPed and have a much reduced role now xD 

To be serious: Happy to answer any Grapevine questions that you may have. Features, ideas, questions on why we do what we do welcome - I’ll answer what I can! 

Cheers!

Hey everyone, 

Thought of creating a daily post where we all can hang around and talk just about anything - without having a specific topic to discuss. 
Think of this like the Watercooler at your office. 

Look forward to hearing from y'all :)

The hiring scene is so bad RN man, and why tf every company I get offer to seems toxic af as per the current and ex employees. So tough to find the right ones

Thank God! We have Grapevine ❤️ because LinkedIn makes me 🤢🤮

Hit ❤️ if it’s true: because I got saved from a 🚩 company that got “Best Places to Work” award 💀

I’ll go first.

To me, it’s all about access. 
Access to authentic ideas.

The best search result you get on Google is high SEO but low authenticity. On LinkedIn, there are so many people but everyone is shilling a course or 1:1 resume reviews. 

Mostly it has become a place which started as vanity signalling 

Like
( I have started a new role…, I have been accepted at …, I have received offers from F, A, N and G and I’m joining G.)  

And now people pushing mindless content with “Agree?” or “Comment Interested”.

Somehow, everyone is truly inauthentic to please a wider audience and say the exact same generic gyaan to maximise engagement.

For now, Grapevine is where people are genuinely themselves and I get to hear interesting things that you get to hear near the coffee machine.

Kinda feels like we’re all a big community where we all contribute and learn new things about the professional landscape around us.

Godspeed Grapevine. 🚀

Hola Grapeviners! I would love to know why are you on the platform?

I have a friends who are doctors. When I met them yesterday, I brought up Grapevine somehow. Aftee going through they app, they wish they had something like this.
Can we add sections/communities for other sectors?

Is Grapevine only for Tech & IT Folks?

Now that you brought up doctors, I sort of realise that professions outside of IT/Tech would have a tough time understanding this.

5.4K grapes finally. Took me 113 posts and 4 to 5 fake "DMs are coming" announcements to get here

Hey folks, update to the latest app to get everything below :)

Grapevine Update: Grapes 2.0, more DMs and more Grapevines

Imagine a day when grapevine collabs with companies and provides them the access of user’s posts, comments etc.
Since grapevine has our corporate emails, company can trace us.

Thrilling vibes!!!

Can grapevine cheat?

The culture, layoffs, work load, growth chance ?

Is it fine to use company laptop for leetcode?

How often you scroll through your mobile phone while in the office. 
Do you use it in front of your manager or when he/she is not around.

Scrolling phone in office.

Pardon me for being so naive here. I want to understand this new type of startup trend.
1. What’s the source of motivation for their employees to stick to their jobs?
2. How do apps like these think of monetizing? There is no ad, no paid feature per say.
3. Grapevine has probably built some kind of a platform. But how is this different from platforms like twitter, facebook or any other social media platform?
4. How much money do you think has been invested into building apps like this?
5. The DAU of this app based on my wild guess must be around 5K. I may be completely wrong here.
6. What according to you is the current valuation of grapevine?
7. Saumil Tripathi, the founder of grapevine is ex-google employee as per his LinkedIn profile. There is no mention of any other any other startup he owns. 
8. Grapevine has a team of 10 employees (as per Saumil’s post a few weeks back)
How do these guys make money?

I’m awestruck by the guys working in grapevine. Building an app of this quality with no monetization in sight!

Pounce on this thread with your thoughts guys!

Grapevine is a free app. How do they run their startup?

Software Architect

It has been a while since I did a thread, so busy with work nowadays. 

My answer would be Grapevine. Never experienced something like Grapevine in a really long time. Especially, considering that it has only been their first year. 

What is your answer?
