How employees describe working at Techstars
My colleagues and working with founders.
Everything is great in this company
The interview process was straightforward
Good locations and the staff is help.
Disappointing -- each Accelerator's staff is treated like hired mercenaries. Unlike a sales role, however, there is no additional compensation or benefits for performance. If an accelerator partner doesn't renew their contract, the entire staff is laid off. Also, knowledge is not shared.
