Yeah I’ve been ghosted by Stripe twice after very positive “this is great we’ll set up next steps” meetings.
One of which was a 1:1 with the CTO, really positive stuff. Few days later I emailed a thanks and “would like to talk about next steps”. Nothing. Sent another a couple weeks later. Nada.
Several months later, got a reach out from a team, said I was interested, and the HM said ok yeah I’ll get you set up. Nothing.
I know I’m not the only one, I know of others who have had similar experiences.
It’s just poor form.

This. This is what I meant with this post above. Poor form. Incompatible with the supposed criticality of the position at stake. I still think Stripe is a great company, was just disappointed at being ignored after all the festivities.
This from someone who does not answer when people ask clarifying questions about his post on HN. Different stakes, sure, but glass houses.
