Bare Bones Experience is What You Make It
|
|
Wealth of Knowledge and Variety of Industries
|
No knowledge of industries or how companies function. Knowledge must be personally sought.
Investments are based on how the partners feel a certain day instead of based on due diligence and numbers.
Investments constantly fail and failures are used to justify low bonuses and salaries.
Constant infighting between partners leads to no direction and constant tension.
Nepotism - friends and family of partners sat and watched Netflix while collecting salaries for multiple people.
Improvement in careers or knowledge is discouraged.
Invests in companies with shady financials (embezzlement, tax evasion, etc.)

- Plenty of opportunity for those who seek it
- No two days are the same as you get to work with a number of exciting different startups
- You build a great range of qualitative and quantitative skills
|
- You have to drive your own success. If you're not self motivated and driven to succeed you will not maximize your opportunity here.

Not without its flaws, but a wonderful place to work
|
|
- Incredibly bright, hard-working and genuinely likeable colleagues (for the most part), moreso than any other place I have ever worked
-Culture heavily promotes continued learning and professional development. On a day-to-day level, you will never be bored if you don't allow yourself to be. Networking groups and industry seminars are highly encouraged. Daily exposure to portfolio companies and teams from a wide variety of emerging tech-enabled industries.
-Partnership is very respectful of work-life harmony. Generous and flexible attitude towards vacation and working remotely.
-Flat organizational structure, leadership is very approachable and listens to suggestions and feedback from employees
|
-Lean and scrappy environment, can be an adjustment if you are used to coming from a workplace with more administrative support
-Lack of transparency around certain investment decisions can be frustrating

Overall a great experience

- Opportunity to work with talented portfolio companies / entrepreneurs
- Intellectually stimulating and challenging work
- Genuinely like and enjoy spending time with almost all peers / colleagues, both junior and senior

Couldn't Care Less About Their Investments and Their People
|
|
Finally leaving this Vulture Capital and going to a more ethical VC.
|
WARNING TO STARTUP LOOKING FOR VC MONEY!!! Couldn't care less about their investments and its people. Witnessed them totally allow the CEO one of their portfolio investments to screw over their employees by not paying them salaries for several months.. FFVC sat on the Board of this company and allowed them to do this while pretending to play the good guy. All they care about is $$$ and certainly not people.

Opportunities for growth
|
|
Open 'fitness' office with standing desks. Friendly colleagues and firm partners. Option to work on a variety of projects.
|
Very casual environment with not much of a dress code. No personal office space as everyone sits together in on open space.
