Anyone heard of Fractal software? They seem legit and are offering me a CEO position + I get to keep 15% equity, but wondering if there’s something I’m missing bc it seems like too good an opp to be true? Any insight appreciated

Are you deserving of a CEO position? If not, it’s a scam. Can you ping a few people on LinkedIn and ask them to chat?

I don't think it's a thing....really sorry, glad you checked before accepting though! I've seen the scam before...but you could reach out to Fractal to see if it's legit I guess?

It definitely not a thing. Offering a CEO position role is already a big flag. Did you continue with the interview process?

That's so unusual. Most companies hire their own employees, mostly those in the higher-ups, for that position. I'd say it's too good to be true.

I'm not aware of any specific company called Fractal software, but it's always a good idea to do your due diligence before accepting any job or equity offers. You can research the company, its founders, its products or services, and any available information about its financial stability or funding. You can also check online reviews or ratings, news articles, or any legal issues or controversies associated with the company. Additionally, you may want to seek advice from trusted mentors or legal professionals to ensure that the offer is fair and aligns with your career goals.

Hi there. I'm the Head of Marketing at Fractal. We're a venture studio that partners with aspiring entrepreneurs to launch vertical SaaS companies. So no, the opportunity is not too good to be true, but to be clear we were not reaching out about the possibility of becoming Fractal's CEO. We are interested in helping you found your own company. Feel free to follow up with the individual who reached out (or message me!) if you'd like to learn more.
