Vanity Founders of Indian startups.
As a vanity Indian founder of a startup, you have overcome certain very complicated social issues to reach here.
While this is important, founders also engage in mindless hedonistic activities while all throughout claiming the company in loss or market crash.
-
I engage in individual interests selflessly while the employee might have to go through a pay cut or salary hold up. For ex: Founders minting expensive tickets for horse polo or football finals abroad, the same month employees were laid off.
-
I engage Celebrity Warlords and build fancy academies to bring stardom while mercilessly laying off people and trampling over their familial relations. Throughout I ensure through PR that my company forecasts are always on top.
-
I maintain a fancy following in the office who sings Bhajans on me and my life and stories. For ex: They prefer passouts from small towns or Tier 2- 3 colleges so they accept without questions.
-
I need a hot female in the office who can help compensate for my emasculated and punctured ego. For ex: this lady will get hikes and unconditional promotion in a year or so.
-
I hire more than I can afford so this is my way of buffering and validating my own immature decisions. This way I don't lose out on supposed opportunities but I ensure that my company always looks buoyant and alive.
-
I don't believe in any political correctness but if the business needs it I will engage people to write for my company as promoting ideas and ideologies superfluously.
-
I want my organisation to be a vanity circus rather than for hiring quality folks. I market as hiring for diversity but this is just the PR stunt.
I have a screenshot after my discussion with with him and never got to do any work written in that text and had to part ways after working there in few months due to punctured egos and ‘main mahaan hoon’ attitude
Say who?
Startup founders are mafia bosses!
Most startup’s are not founded with great altruistic purpose to elevate human condition. Most startup’s are founded where founders know they can make money or earn status points through little schemes of leveraging their network of inves...
Incredibly myopic and pessimistic view. I'd suggest trying to be a founder yourself once before judging them. No...
