Is it permissible to work at a VC firm? From what I understand it should be because both parties are taking risks.

I believe so… You can have both a profit or a loss - it’s not fixed. So, yes? But I’d still talk to an Islamic finance expert to confirm.

I assume it should be permissible, you arent giving money based on interest, the VC firm takes risk on losing money on most investments then make it back 5/100 or something

Long post alert; I have been interviewing with a b4 for a senior con role since Mar end. Cleared all the rounds including case study and got strong rating as well as good feedback. Fast forward to last week, the talent POC calls me up and informs that she has asked the business if the position is still open, because now they just need the business approval to roll out the offer. I immediately felt demotivated as to ‘why now’ after all rounds have been cleared (continued in the comment below)
