VC / PE people who have carry: do you usually have / sign the papers and vesting schedule straight away ? My fund has been withholding a lot of the paperwork and basically I am afraid to get screwed if I leave.

Welcome to the cloudy world of PE/VC.

Am actually scared. This is messed up.

You don’t ‘sign the vesting schedule’ - you have no input on it so there is no agreement. You should be filing an 83b election each year in relation to your annual grant, but that’s about it

Am in the UK. But understood re US situation. Thank you. Have you heard of papers being delayed ?

Typically upon find close, assuming your carry is tied to the fund that’s in motion for raising. If your carry is tied to an already-closed fund, then you should be signing papers upon joining

Hey, what is the hierarchy structure at Novartis?

With product design questions, I struggle to identify user groups. Once I do everything starts flowing and I’m confident. But the initial identification of user groups is something I find challenging. What’s your go-to way of doing this? For example, the question “design a podcasting app for truck drivers.” What types of truck drivers can I select so that I can prioritize a user group to focus on and begin identification of pain points and solutions?

Has anyone moved away from NY and successfully resigned from the NY bar? What are the consequences if you just don’t pay? The requirements are insane to officially “resign” - draft a motion, pay a fee, send proof of service - I honestly do not know what this nonsense means, I’m not a litigator for a reason. Is there someone I can pay to do it? Should I just pay the $375 to stay active to avoid this nightmare?
