Bait and Switch. The role was framed as senior and custom-built, posted for a comp package of more $160K–$250K plus carry and equity. They flew me to San Francisco and Nashville in the same week. Across those sessions I delivered investor behavioral segmentation, a 90-day operational roadmap, a full GTM strategy covering both sides of their marketplace, and an AI product architecture brief. Consulting-grade work. They still have it. But then the role supposedly changed and morphed and flip-flopped by the time I had arrived to Nashville and after I had gone through the blending machine of interviews in SF. The offer came in at $120K (below their own posted floor) with no variable comp, no bonus, no commission structure, and no explanation. The negotiation opened with "the best part about hiring ex-founders is they're used to working for next to nothing." My jaw dropped. When concerns were raised for how disingenuous their team and process had been, particularly over a company whose mission is to ‘Democratize Access to Capital’, Wefunder offered $1,000 as a goodwill gesture for two cities, two trips, and a week of consulting. Below market value for the work produced and delivered to Wefunder. Before you take their first call, read the other reviews on this page. At least four describe the same arc: senior framing, real work extracted, a junior offer or no offer, and a $1,000 gesture that goes nowhere. This is a pattern, not a miscommunication.
