The way the job postings are abused around here is a bit of a joke, there’s another company who has been hiring their third employee for over a year now, either they have someone and are lying as their first interaction with people or they can’t hire people or maybe they keep firing employee number 3 before they get any shares.

Who knows which one it is but I wouldn’t want to work with people like this. An easy solution is just let people comment on job listings, it will soon prevent abuse and allow people to get clarification and learn more about the work environment.



This rang a bell, so I went for searching. Said company is Meticulous [0]. Their most recent job post was on 2023-08-27. Their oldest job post that I could find was on 2022-06-07 [2].
