Good lessons learned in a hard way) Thanks for sharing. Some of the points sound quite common for many startups and seems to come from the focus on hyper growth that their investors expect. Hope the more tight venture market that we see now will reduce that.

So nice to read a honest take on a failed startup! This side of story is often skipped and we end up focussing on success stories only!

Everything you said I lived through before my former employer closed permanently.
