When I read this,I was verifying each point against the last startup I worked with and they don't follow many of the points discussed when I was there.But they have a very good seed funding.The thing going against them may be is growth.They are from 4 (including me) to 25+ (excluding me)employees in less than 6 months with no senior person in the team.One main Founder was trying to do micro management and delegating tasks poorly with poor communications.They have fired many people than I can imagine.And I am still hopeful that they succeed as my friend is still with them. I still think they may succeed as they are growing. I was ok with everything except the firing part!.This is an operational heavy business and not technical.
Yes probably. Article is largely aimed at 12-24 Months but at the same time 20-40 member team. But if you team is big, you need lot of things in control no matter how old you are as detailed in the article. Otherwise they are inviting chaos
