l’ve just been approached by someone heading a startup offering company shares in exchange for part-time unpaid work. He’s mentioned cash won’t be paid until they’ve acquired a seed round of investment. Are these offers usually a scam in the startup world? Or is this typically normal? Thanks

    I get a feeling thay the founder or whoever approached you, sees this as some kind of free work as shares are offered to VALUABLE and long-term employees.

    Not something you just give away for part time work every now and then… unless you don’t believe they could be worth something one day.

    I would pass.
