We invested in a company building exactly the same thing, which then decided to not continue building it. Happy to see someone else trying!

Really love the idea, but super long on boarding process... I peace'd out.

What do you think are the largest downfalls to getting acquihired?

@drjoelpalath I would say a bad fit. We'll help teams negotiate on fit, compensation, and/or any factors the team finds important in their next project.

This is great! Echo the freelancer thoughts, having a collective of awesome people who can work on projects.

@mikeyanderson Can teams apply for certain jobs or is it solely up to the company's digression to reach out to the potential team?

@dgreenstein1 Since companies don't yet post team job reqs, it's not as easy as just applying. We have partners that we're working with initially to place the first teams, and we'll continue growing that until there are lots of options.

I did some customer development interviews for this concept before. I found that hiring companies loved the idea, however their process is still like hiring a bunch of individuals anyways (eg: individual interviews). The talent side was not really excited by it. While you do have an amazingly inspirational video, the reality is that acquihire is considered a final consolation prize option that they'd like to avoid. Also, quality talent didn't have a problem finding their next role. How is this different from ExitRound where acquihires have been done before? With ExitRound you still have the potential to be acquired for more than just talent.

Undeniably, this is one of the best intro video i've ever seen. Great work guys!!
