First off.... UFOs. They're real. I ain't sayin' they're aliens or weather balloons or the old man from 'Up'. But they're unidentified, and that's all I (don't) know.
Second, and more importantly, I'm in a unique situation:
I work for a startup, and I'm doing pretty darn well. Top performer last quarter. Great relationship with execs. But the company is taking on water. Runway of less than 2 years. Burn rate is not pretty. As much as I want to stick around, feeling the need to jump ship.... rather, rocket ship?
My buddy works for a startup closely tied to AI. Specifically ChatGPT. He showed me their customer growth, and it's darn impressive. They are popping off.
I'm considering applying. But their funding is less than ideal. And I'm concerned about hopping onto the hot new thing in an unproven market.
What should I take into consideration before applying? Specific metrics? Revenue numbers?
