Startups How to research a new company before joining

Startups How to research a new company before joining When Penny Kim recounted her brief career with WrkRiot in a Medium post last month, the digital marketer wove a cautionary tale for Silicon Valley hopefuls. The company, a Santa Clara, Calif.-based job-matching startup, melted down just one month after Kim moved across the country for her first day. Following several weeks of no payâ€"employees were allegedly sent Photoshopped images of wire transfers to “confirm” they’d been paidâ€"Kim was fired after she filed a wage claim. She took to Medium to air her grievances (Kim originally concealed the name of the startup but has since confirmed the details). Two days later, WrkRiot went offline, still in the early stages of fundraising. The startup, in other words, never actually started up. Granted, Kim’s story is extreme. Most startups make it well past the funding stage and aren’t led by an alleged con artist. But WrkRiot is hardly the first go-go venture to go up in flames. Fab.com, valued at $1 billion in 2013, went bust just two years later. Quirky, a once-promising crowd-sourced inventions startup, filed for bankruptcy late last year. And if you’ve picked up a business magazine in the last year, you’re well versed on the collapse of blood-testing company Theranos, currently embroiled in a criminal investigation. Many startups implode outside of the public eye. Only about half of all new businesses survive their first five years, and only about one third survive 10 years or more, according to data from the Small Business Administration. Smart entrepreneurs know the odds are stacked against them and hedge their bets accordingly. Rank-and-file employees, though, many of whom are flocking to startups throughout the country, may not have the same cushion. Close Modal DialogThis is a modal window. This modal can be closed by pressing the Escape key or activating the close button. Vetting a startup is tricky business, and harder yet if the company hasn’t earned a reputation or a established paper trail. If you’re applying for a position at an early-stage startup, it’s worth doing some digging. Here’s how to get started. Research the head honcho Before agreeing to take the role, find out as much about the leader as you can, says career coach Jody Michael. Start with Google, LinkedIn, and Glassdoor. Has the CEO launched a business before? How did it do? If the leader has a history of launching and selling successful companies, there’s a good chance she’ll be able to do it againâ€"especially if she’s brought old direct reports to the new venture. CEOs who have never helmed a company before should be given an extra level of scrutiny. If there’s little information about the leader online, reach out to your professional network; maybe someone in the startup space can connect you with a colleague who has worked with or knows the founder. “It’s easy to get caught up in the charisma of the CEO, but they need to be backed by focused vision, a strategic plan, and ample resources,” Michael says. “Great leaders are consistent with success.” Red flags: “Pie in the sky” attitudes. Enthusiasm should be grounded in reality. Serial entrepreneurs with no record of success. Why will this go-round be better than before? Mystery CEOs. If your connection with a decade of experience in hospitality startups doesn’t know the guy launching an Airbnb competitor, that’s probably a bad sign. Vet the idea The best time to join a company is during the growth phase, “when there’s a proven demand for [its] products and services,” Michael says. If the company you’re looking at hasn’t reached that point, you’ll need to do some due diligence. Research the startup online, paying close attention to what’s written about it on sites like CrunchBase and CB Insights. Check GlassDoor and LinkedIn to see what former employees say about the company. Then, ask penetrating questions during your interview. How is the operation funded? Is it on a shoestring budget? How rigorous are the supply and demand calculations? What’s the five-year plan? Read next: This Startup Founder Just Went From Billionaire to Broke “You want some kind of accountability factor, something that shows this is a worthwhile idea,” says Ann Mehl, a career strategist who works with clients in the startup space. “There’s no need to tiptoe around the fact that some companies go belly up, and some leaders use smoke and mirrors. Ask to get to know the business more.” Be wary of lofty promises made by early-stage startups, Mehl advises. If your interviewer is truthful, he’ll be straight about what you’re headed into. Red Flags: An interviewer who can’t (or won’t) answer questions on funding, accountability and plans to distribute equity. A company that requires new hires to make a financial investment before joining. A company that offers “special deals” like stock options in lieu of competitive pay. Sure, many startup companies offer employees stock, but if this one wants to pay you $20,000 a year when you should be making $80,000 and justifies it with stock options, joining is probably not in your best interest. What if you’re still on the fence? Here’s the rub: joining a startup is always a gamble. Some of the most promising new businesses fail, and there’s no real way of knowing if the one you’re interested in will survive. What it comes down to, then, is your own financial stability. If you’re a comfort-driven or risk-averse person, a startup is probably not the best place for you. But if you have a solid backup plan and can afford some time off if the company goes bust, you’re better positioned to make that leap. Mehl suggests proposing a trial run, where you work on a consulting basis for three to six months before committing to a contract. If you have to relocate, ask to work remotely until the business gains traction. Both options lower your personal stake and allow you to learn how the team operates. In the end, though, you’re going to have to go with your gut. “It’s a roller coaster no matter what,” she says. “Sometimes it’s an epic one, and sometimes it’s so clunky that you want to get off as quickly as you get on. Either way, you’re going to have to accept a bit of faith.”

Job Path of a Diversity Consultant - Work It Daily

Job Path of a Diversity Consultant - Work It Daily This is a true story as told to DiversityJobs.com where you can find helpful career interviews and job search advice in your desired industry. Visit to find a career interview in your field today. The job path of a diversity consultant isn't always the same, but here's my story. I am currently a Military Equal Opportunity (MEO) Advisor / Human Relations Education (HRE) / Diversity Specialist for the United States Air Force. I have been in the military for a total of 15 years in various jobs, and have served in my current position for almost three years. I completed a three-week course on Diversity issues in Florida before I was assigned this position. I also go through many continuing education courses on a regular basis to keep me up-to-date on the latest information I need to perform my duties. In addition to my military duties of airmanship, which includes physical fitness and being prepared as a warfighter, I manage the Diversity, MEO and HRE programs for the entire base that I am stationed on. I am in charge of all administrative functions for these programs, and I coordinate and conduct all Diversity and related training for a small base of about 1,200 people. I create the training and course materials and conduct classes. My staff and I promote an environment where all individuals connected with the unit, both civilian and military personnel and their families, are treated with dignity and respect at all times, regardless of race, color, religion, national origin, or sex. I also provide advice, consultation, education, mediation to unit members and families, and provide resources for them, in an effort to enhance mission effectiveness. I have a staff of three that assist me, so I also train them and keep them up-to-date on Diversity issues. On a scale of 1 to 10, my current job satisfaction rating is a 10. I love my job and what I do. I get to serve my country and help better the lives of our airmen, civilian employees and family members. I joined the military to help people, and I get to do this on a daily basis. I have served in a lot of positions in my 15 years in the military, and this is by far the most challenging and most fulfilling. When I took this job, being a Diversity consultant was really not on my radar as far as what I wanted to do in the military. My Commander came to me and asked me to do the job because he really believed in me and my abilities. After thinking on it for a few minutes, I accepted. I believe I made the right choice, and my senior leadership agrees. I perform my duties to the best of my abilities and it has paid off in the form of happy unit members and several awards bestowed upon me by my unit and higher headquarters. The single most important thing I have learned outside of school about the working world is that it's tough. My unit has several Guardsmen and Reservists attached, and I deal with active-duty members as they transition to retirement. The job market is tough, and leaving military service to a world of unknowns is scary. I am thankful to have job security in the military, but even that is shaky now, with budget cuts and subsequent personnel cuts. The most challenging part of my job would be the complaints we get that someone isn't being treated fairly. We then have to investigate and get statements from the parties involved and interview witnesses and try to come up with a good solution for all parties involved. This can be stressful as every story has multiple sides and it's up to us to find out the truth of the matter. My job can be stressful at times. There are a lot of tasks to be done, and sometimes we have little time to complete them in. We also have a yearly inspection, but my team is always on top and ready for anything like that, so it doesn't cause us as much stress as you might think. Thanks to the other members of my shop, I am able to leave work issues at work most of the time. We share weekend duty and one of us carries the duty cell phone each weekend, so for three weekends a month, I am free to think about everything but work. And in the evenings, I relax with my family and leave work issues at work. I exercise daily and eat a healthy diet, so I am able to handle any stresses that come my way. To obtain the position I hold in the Air Force, you must be at least a Non-Commissioned Officer in the rank of E-5 or above. I currently hold the rank of E-7/Master Sergeant, and have a combined total of 15 years of military service (four years in the Army and the rest in the Air Force). My base pay is currently $3,976 per month, not including other allowances. I also receive BAS (Basic Allowance for Subsistence, or grocery money) and BAH (Basic Allowance for Housing). The military pays you well for what you do, once you get a little rank and time in service. I am authorized 30 days of vacation per year, and I do take all days authorized. It is more than enough, and I am so thankful for the time off. I realize many jobs don't get this kind of vacation time. 30 days per year is enough to allow me to spend quality time with my family and relax and clear my mind so I can do my job well. Each day, I am happy to get up and head to work. I am so honored to be able to serve my country. I fought pretty hard to clear several obstacles to even be allowed to join the military 15 years ago. I never take my service for granted, and I never take for granted that the military took a chance on me and decided to let me serve. I have been proud of everything I have done, but the most proud moment in my life was when I got to meet President Bush in Greensburg, Kansas in May 2007 just after the devastating tornado hit that town. I will never forget how he shook my hand and thanked me for helping the people of Greensburg. I was and still am honored.
