Fund: Foundation Capital

Posted by Anonymous on 2008-01-21

PUBLIC:

I interviewed to be the CEO of one of Foundation's investments last year. I was the the CEO who could have saved this investment, and turned it into a real home run - and they agreed. They used an east coast headhunter to manage the process, who found someone at a company I'd done 10 years ago who didn't like me, so they canned the process. Their company is now in the process of shutting down because these guys were so intent on crossing the "ts" and dotting the "Is" before they hired anyone to lead the venture, even though the team and the founder really wanted me. I could go on and on, but they put put form over function, and lost their investment, and ruined the founder's opportunity and vision, and the team members lost their jobs.
