What Actually Happened
My startup told me they were letting everyone go, but I later discovered they only fired me. Everyone else is still working there on reduced pay, an option I was never offered.
What I wish I knew
"I wish I knew the recruiter's promise of a 'long-term stable position' was a lie."
