Imagine helping build something from the ground up, only to have your contribution entirely dismissed and undervalued. This CEO is giving an Elizabeth Holmes level of ruthlessness after cheating her former CTO out of his promised shares in the company just before its official launch.
This, of course, was after two years of contracted work on the CTO's part in helping develop the app and raise funding for the startup. Once the CEO found an investor who signed onto the company as her COO, this Redditor's contributions were suddenly considered minor. They even tried to pay him a small fee to get him to go away quietly. Thankfully, as many folks in the comments section suggested, the Redditor has plenty of documentation proving just how instrumental he was to the company's growth. I guess it's time for the CEO to pay him what he's worth before she has a lawsuit on her hands.
