On this week's The Chad & Cheese Podcast interview episode, Joel and Chad sit down with Kristy McCann founder, former CEO of Skill Cycle, and overall HR force of nature who proves the ultimate golden rule: Do NOT mess with HR.
Ever wondered what a founder’s absolute worst nightmare looks like? Picture this: You bootstrap your HR tech startup, navigate COVID without losing your shirt, grow fourfold, and then win an "Opportunity Fund" competition. Sounds great, right? Except the folks writing the checks didn't just want a seat at the table they wanted to lock you out of the house, revalue your $30 million company down to $8 million, and suggest you replace your human coaching marketplace with an AI bot.
In this wildly candid episode, Kristy spills all the tea (and Burger King) on:
The Georgia Ambush
VC Playbooks & "Pay-to-Play"
RICO & Receipts
It’s a cautionary tale full of red flags, "bipolar 5.5-sense" gut instincts, and a Masterclass in why discovery in a courtroom is a VC's absolute worst enemy.
"You wanna fuck with me? Fine. Let's bring it out into a courtroom."
— Kristy McCann
Grab your popcorn, founders you’re going to want to take notes on this one.
