US man quits IITians' startup after 1st day, recalls hearing 'I chopped goat's head for good luck'
Jared Steele, an ex-employee of IIT graduates Varun Vummadi and Esha Manideep's Giga AI, claimed he quit after first day due to red flags. He recalled hearing "I chopped off goat's head in India [for]...good luck" and "When we hit $10-million ARR, we're going to spend $100,000 on illegal stuff". "This is epitome of what's wrong with tech/AI," Steele said.
